    I would have loved that too, I hope they’re at least considering the move to somewhere else, tho I can understand it’s not easy with a community that big.

      I messaged the mods during the poll and urged them to move to lemmy or kbin. They responded saying that I’m “far from the first to suggest this” and that they’re thinking about it but moving an entire community of that size over is difficult. I don’t think they really understood that they would never be able to move the entire community over and that’s ok, since an exodus needs to begin somewhere.

      But it looks like they just reopened like every other sub. Disappointing.

        Yeah I messaged the mods too, mostly to thank them for what they did so far since I’m quitting reddit, I too suggested to consider moving, I bet lots of people did that.

        I try to think they’re maybe discussing it internally while pretending things are back to normal, staying put is probably best for them, mentions of lemmy/kbin are being removed, a few people even banned over it.

        r/wow is more than 2 millions, there’s no way they can join an existing instance, lemmy has 300k users across all instances and still struggling under the influx, can you imagine the disaster if a community that big just joined any server? They would probably need to setup a dedicated server, that requires time and a lot of planning.
