It may be easier if you hosted your own Lemmy instance and guiding Redditor’s to that, check out oracle always free tier, I believe you can get a 24GB RAM Arm 4 OCPUs, which is definitely enough spec to hit the ground running with a few thousands subscribers. If you end up needing higher spec than that, you could start a donation pot, giving the help the sub provides, I feel safer in saying you’d get enough donations.

You get a wan IP too, you just need to buy an instance domain, exactly the same as buying any other domain and point it to you IP.
It would be the most seamless way to migrate imv, don’t have to deal with both kbins problems and potential problems of Lemmy, where you aren’t in control of the server hosting all your material.
Happy to try and assist, pro bono, if you like this idea and need my help.
