Is there a way of merging the posts from one into another if the recipient gives permission? Most topics only really need one community.
Lock the old community and point to the new one.
[email protected] for instance
Nobody is reading a 5 lines comment?
If [email protected] can do it, your interest can too

Thank you for your nice comment!
Honestly this place is starting to piss me off a little bit sometimes.
What you describe is a vocal minority. It’s pretty obvious that most of the users wouldn’t wind getting the place getting at least twice as active.
Not sure if I mentioned it to you, but you are aware of [email protected] ? I’m going to start daily threads there to promote non-political communities
I do find community discoverability harder here
In a perfect world, maybe there’d be a “Makers” community that was, sure, 70% 3D printing, but the other 30% wouldn’t feel like they needed to leave and shout into a void, and people into 3D printing would get to see cool shit done with other tools.
Have you tried reaching out to the mods of [email protected] ?
Also, I just created a thread to promote manual hobbies communities on [email protected] , feel free to add yours!
Lemmy is never living down the poor community discoverability allegations.

Really community dependent.
[email protected] is well, casual.
Of course politics and news communities are something else.
I wasn’t aware they still made those in 2025
Edit: they don’t, got fooled by the prices chart
