The Lemmy.world hack made a good opportunity to explore other instances out there. Found one based in my area. Back in action!

It’s possible to move communities to other instances? How’s it work?

Not really, unfortunately. You'd have to create the community on a different instance, make a sticky post in the original community redirecting them to the new community, and then lock the community to prevent new posts. If you don't have a lot of content in the original community, or don't care about keeping it, you could delete the community after a week or two once people have subscribed to the new community to prevent confusion.

It isn't possible just yet, although there are issues on Lemmy's github for it.
