If I created a community, and later determine there is a better/more active community on the 'verse, is there a way to close the community (or better yet redirect it to the community I'd rather folks join if they are interested in the subject matter)?

I suspect this is documented somewhere but neither a search on lemmy.ca nor a DDG inquiry found anything immediatly recognizable.

Android did it by closing all new comments from their old instance, pinned a post explaining where and why they are moving and explained that in august (or september) the old community will be deleted.

How do you delete? I couldn't even find that option.

there should be a "remove" option when you're on the community page itself.

Are you reffering to [email protected]? I'm not seeing what you are speaking of.
