Hello, !fallout@sopuli.xyz, I am a moderator of the !fallout@lemmy.world and !falloutmods@lemmy.world communities, and I wish to ask for the opinions of people who are a part of this community.

Fallout@sopuli.xyz has less than a fourteenth of the users of it's equivalent lemmy.world community, and has had only three posts over the last year.

With this in mind, I am proposing that this community be closed, and redirected towards the larger Fallout community here on Lemmy.

I do agree with the stated purpose of promoting decentralisation on Lemmy, but I have not found this community to meaningfully break away from centralised instances. And in the interest of preventing fragmentation of instances, to the negative effect of both communities, I believe this would be the best course of action.

I do not, however, wish to assert this opinion over others who have more invested in this community than I do. And so, I am asking for feedback from the members of this community. If this post is already locked by the time you see it, reach out to me on my piefed account, @rosahaj@piefed.blahaj.zone, which I check more frequently.

Thank you in advance for your time, and I thank the users of this community for their efforts in building, namely @fraydabson@sopuli.xyz, and CorrodedCranium@leminal.space for founding the community, and their notable activity respectively.

Ok It's been about a week; I don't know about the subscribers here (I'm not part of this group, even though I really love these games - at least some of them - and their inspiring lore), but I'd just keep this community alive with this post pinned to the top to guide Fediverse travelers to more active communities while they are still online (who knows, maybe some people would need a refuge here against future misalignment with governance on other servers?).

That said, I see no downvotes nor original mod's activity, and thus no reason not to promote you to mod.
