Can we get a weekly post of communities that are scrubbed from lemmy just like we get a weekly question promoting active communities? This way it gives a person to take over. (lemmy.world)

I’m not sure this is the same problem as a community that has gone offline or was scrubbed in some way. A community that’s inactive or not being properly maintained sounds like a different kind of problem. In this case, we mainly just hope that the federative design means such communities eventually get replaced by people who want a better community, possibly on another server entirely.

I can imagine someone writing a bot or script to detect dead communities.
