I might be a bit out of the loop here but why was the decision made to migrate the community to a different instance?

All I’ve seen is that it was to move to a “friendlier” instance, did something happen previously or is this just related to the admins of lemmy.ml?

    I think one of the main mods was banned from the instance for having multiple accounts. Personally I don’t see that as a problem unless it is used problematically.

    And the .ml instance was a bit too tankie at times.

    The admins banned all of the mod accounts? Seems a bit drastic to me. All the community ever had was plex stuff. I’ll come here now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Oh wow, I did not know that had happened. Totally makes sense to move, just had a feeling something had triggered the decision. Lemmy.ca seems to have a more active Plex community but it’s always good to have a backup.

        It seems sloppy to ban the mods of a community without giving them the opportunity to hand off to another user.
