I wonder if someone closed it down? If not, I have had similar troubles with lemmy.zip and honestly forgot about them when I made this post.
We remove communities with dormant mods to prevent spam :)
So I made a backup community, !otomegames@lemmy.zip on your community, explicitly saying I would not do any posting or unlock unless the main !otomegames@ani.social died. Is that getting killed unless the community receives posts? What about the @OtomeGamesBot@lemmy.zip (which is usually me manually operating, oops)?
Nah, we do a whole process where we write out to mods first to check before deleting - plus iirc you've put its a backup community in the sidebar. We're not so big I don't recognize the communities quite yet!
We wouldn't delete any dormant account.
Whew, thank you. And you are absolutely right I am explicit about its backup status in the sidebar.
