Proposed redirection of this community to a more active Electric Vehicles community (lemmy.ca)

Smaller communities have trouble growing when they are scattered and competing with one another. Focusing on one community can help a lot with growth (a few people posting to a few small communities vs. all of them posting to the same larger community).

User @[email protected] made a post here to discuss consolidating the Electric Vehicle communities: https://lemm.ee/post/46935805

Since this community hasn't had a post in a year and the mod hasn't been active, it was proposed that we lock the community and pin a post directing users to the chosen community (currently it looks to be [email protected] ). Then, if at any point people don't like how that community is being run, there is always the option of unlocking these other communities.

I'm in favour of locking and redirecting, but I wanted to get feedback first :)

Lock and redirect seems like a good idea. Duplicating efforts spreads our effectiveness thinly.

I agree. (I did the same thing with the D&D community I initially launched here) -- locked and redirected. Make sure there is a pinned post directing people, and sidebar notes about it.

Ok with me.
