Exactly

Thanks! That's very useful advise. By "lock the community" you mean setting "Only moderators can post to this community" with this checkbox, or something else?

That's great!

Unfortunately, there isn't a built-in automated migration process available yet. To transition smoothly, you should create the new community and make an announcement in the old one, pinning it for visibility. Additionally, consider cross-posting the last five posts to ensure the new community doesn't start empty.

The old community is already federated here, which means it will remain on Europe Pub and other federated instances for archival purposes. However, it will no longer federate new content. This implies that any new posts in the old community from Europe Pub will only be visible to Europe Pub users and not to users on different instances. To avoid any confusion, it would be best to lock the community before the server goes down.

Thank you! Everyone on our side agrees to move to europe.pub. So it's decided!

Do I understand correctly that there is no automated way to migrate a community in Lemme? I just have to create a new one on your instance and make an announcement here for everyone to know? And maybe cross-post everything from here too? Any advise?

You are warmly welcome to Europe Pub. Your community would be a great addition, and I would be proud to offer you a new home. :)

We are leaning towards europe.pub, because it's a smaller instance (so moving there increases distribution of Fediverse), it has awesome name and good values. One concern I had is that there is only one admin (@tfm@europe.pub), but after having a wholesome conversation with them I'm confident it's going to be a good new home for us. At Esc Co. we have a collective meeting later today and will make a final decision about the move.

I'm trying PieFed from a new account to see what's the general experience.

Yes, thank you! It's fixed now.
