  You can probably lock your community so that posts you created are still accessible.

  You can do that by editing the community sidebar and check the “Only moderators can post” box Image

    Cool thank you. No sarcasm was just thinking of people getting confused.

      Once you’ve done that, I would recommend the following actions:

      • Make one last pinned post on !explainlikeiamfive@lemmy.world just saying "Hey everyone, we’ve moved to !explainlikeimfive@lemmy.world, and this community will be closed.
      • Edit the display name from “Explain Like I’m Five” to something like “(CLOSED) Explain Like I’m Five”

      @rikudou@lemmings.world, could you please add Don_Dickle as a moderator of !explainlikeimfive@lemmy.world? I believe they have sent you the DM you asked for.

        Reminder to close the smaller community and direct people to the larger one.
