The beauty of the fediverse is also to be able to interact with communities from different instances, to avoid recreate community on every instance, and fragment the small activity there is on a topic.

At the moment, on the “buy european / buy from EU” topic, there are

• !buyeuropean@feddit.uk : most active community
• !buyfromeu@feddit.org : the one you want to cancel
• !buyfromeu@europe.pub : small one that exists before a single mod thought it was worth it to recreate yet another buyfromeu community
• !madeineurope@lemmy.zip : made by someone that disagreed with !buyeuropean@feddit.uk , seems like they stopped posting shortly
• and now !buyfromeu@lemmy.dbzer0.com

That topic isn’t that active in the first place. There are a few posts a day. Moderation is okay. There doesn’t seem to be a need to create yet another community.

That’s a point I addressed 11 months ago already: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/39614799

Note that there are cases when new communities need to emerge due to power tripping mods. But here, the feddit.uk mods and admins have been good, no such issue to be reported.

In another comment, Graine this about feddit.org and feddit.uk

I don’t know anything about .uk, but it has the same name as .org which isn’t a good look if they’re different.

As most of the people already know, lemmy.ml and lemmy.world are quite different.

So yeah, if you want to create another community, it’s of course your right, but expect the few people who have been keeping the most active community alive for a year to question your choice.
