Having separate communities with very low activity prevents their growth. Consolidation can be discussed if the mods are okay with it. On the other hand, if there are issues with the instance where the communities are located, then giving a try at another version of the community might help.

I'm the only mod and I have to go, based on the history, I wanted to avoid coming back to a thread full of drama like the ones I linked in that post.
I'm going to find mods in the coming days. I'll also reopen that thread when I'm back.
Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform? On top of that, I'm not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk
And a lot of other communities where I regularly post
