MODERATORS
I think what he meant is why launch a second exact same community, with merely 300 subscribers, when there's already an established one like !android@lemmy.world which has now more than 15k subscribers? I noticed that behavior with the r/neovim mods too, they refused to join an existing community. My guess is simply that they want to be in a community where they are still in charge of everything, they're too addicted to their mod "powers" to let go of them.
Back to OP, I think the whole thread and the way r/Android mods just hoped to absorb users of this community is completely inappropriate and simply disrespectful.
Same reason there's been games, gaming, truegaming, patientgaming, etc. Overtime each community can come to develop their own style.
