Are you going to shut down the instance?
I think switching to some obscure platform is a bad idea, but if you want to do that, at least make a post with a list of alternative communities such as https://lemmy.cafe/c/monero and https://lemmy.ml/c/monero

I never loved the idea of hosting everything on one server, even in a federated system. I had asked on matrix before if anyone would want to but there was nobody willing to pick up hosting the instance. I don’t want all of this to depend on me and people to lose touch because I am unavailable. For now we will keep the instance up and running, at least till we find a suitable replacement software that is more decentralized.

Does it need to look like Reddit?
I am working on an ActivityPub client that doesn't depend on a single server. Groups are planned, but the interface will be different from Reddit/Lemmy.
