Communities should be able to move servers (lemmy.world)

Idea: if you mod a community on a lemmy.somewhere you should be able to migrate it to lemmy.elsewhere which would include all post & comment links being forwarded and subbed users having their subscription updated to reflect the new location.

I'm aware this would be a way down the road as user account migration alone is still not great but it would be a great feature for the fediverse to have to avoid centralisation and mod/server admin wars.

He's one of the "I don't want to see something so neither should anyone else" crowd.

Incorrect. I'm fine with instances that host a variety of content. Including stuff I don't want to see.

However, I'm allowed to join an instance whose admins take a stance against bigotry for example, and therefore take better care that such content isn't allowed to freely go through their instance. That way I and a thousand of other users don't need to all block the content they don't like manually. It's my instance admin's choice, and my choice to go with their instance.
