Thought this required its own post as we might need to create a new community.
I managed to get in contact with the creator of the community (same username on reddit). I don’t think he’s coming back to lemmy. He’s offered to delete the community if that frees up the name for us to create an identical community on lemmy.world. I don’t know if that’s possible or if the community can be transferred to another user instead.
Staying on lemmy.world seems like a good idea imo as new arrivals will gravitate towards that.
Anyone have any ideas of the best way forward? Anyone fancy being an admin/mod lol?
Edit: He might not be permanently gone. Just coming back every once in a while.
Here’s the conversation if anyone is interested.

I kind of feel similar. Keeping the same community seems like the best option.
He’s offered to add some mods if that sorts out any issues. Is anyone the mod of another community and knows about mods/admins? Can mods do everything an admin can (besides deleting the community) in case u/MushroomMan89 is away for a while?
I can help. I mod https://lemmy.world/c/ussoccer and https://lemmy.world/c/mls currently
Thanks. I’ve sent a message to u/MushroomMan89 to see if he can add you as a mod.
