If I created a community, and later determine there is a better/more active community on the 'verse, is there a way to close the community (or better yet redirect it to the community I'd rather folks join if they are interested in the subject matter)?

I suspect this is documented somewhere but neither a search on lemmy.ca nor a DDG inquiry found anything immediatly recognizable.

i don't think there's a universal way to do this currently.

i would say probably the best thing to do would be to create a pinned post saying the community is closing or whatever, with a link to the new one, and also maybe something in the community sidebar as well.

you could also set the community to only allow posts from moderators.
