I know they roughly explained why, but it seems pretty insane they jumped the gun without having any of the users input and want people to go to another instance just for that community

    I think it is very well explained. You don’t need to go to other instance to follow them.

    They are just merging with another community for convenience.

    I don’t get why are you so upset. It’s not a big deal.

    Also, you can create your own community in any instance you want.

      “I don’t get why are you so upset. It’s not a big deal.”

      first off I’m not? I’m just confused why the entire modteam just refused to get everyone’s input and did what they wanted anyway which is why people left reddit in the first place.

      Second, it’s not convenient to just close a community without anyone’s knowledge and punish the users who don’t want to move so suddenly.

        I get the feeling that you don’t understand that you don’t need to sign up at the other instance to subscribe to the community. You can just click the link and subscribe from your current account, and everything will be as it was.

        You don’t have to move your account. You can subscribe to the other community on the other instance from your existing account. That’s the beauty of the Fediverse.
