!android@lemmy.world ended up reopening after it was arbitrary closed to promote another community, without prior consultation, creating dissatisfaction among the users similar to what we are seeing here.
Hopefully this is what will happen here too.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
Sorry, let me rephrase it: “Perfect, and then I will lock it down and move it to an instance a majority of the community members dislike.”
So the community never belonged to the users, it was only the mods’ ?
Start a community and run it the way you like! Expand the Fediverse! Make a place truly your own!
Perfect, and then the mods will lock it down and move to an instance I dislike.
There’s a reason !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com exists. One strength of the Fediverse is indeed that the community belong to the users.

This seems like prime material for !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
You can see this other example on !android@lemmy.world
If enough people are so angry then they will make their own community over at blahaj.zone and proof me wrong but if not, then I guess there probably wasn’t enough demand.
They already have their community, it’s !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone
How about reopening the community, and allow a Blahaj admin to take over, asking for new mods and keep the community open?
Both asked their communities before moving. As respect and politeness towards their members.
You can create your own community on lemmy.blahaj.zone!
That’s seriously underestimating the time it takes to create a new community if the old community isn’t on board. !football@lemmy.world recently moved to !Football@lemm.ee , but the mods made sure to ping everyone to inform them of the change.
Not allowing members to take over the former community seems power tripping.
Indeed
Seconding this
It has been removed recently from !politics@lemmy.world and !world@lemmy.world following a poll
