The communities in question are !bulgariaeu and !sofia . The admin rarely shows up and I've been keeping them alive for years. I'm asking to be added as an admin along the founder, not replacing him.

The first one of these has a sentimental value, because it is the name of an important community on reddit that was dissolved.

The second one is for the capital of Bulgaria. Since, I've set up a dedicated Bulgarian instance and I've been avoiding to create a community on Sofia to avoid duplication.

As you could see from the votes, the Bulgarian community here is present, even if small and not very active in native language and on these topics. Yet, I firmly believe they are worth maintaining.

You are now the "top" moderator of both communities. I did not remove the existing moderator, but you have the power to remove them if you wish. They have no visible activity for 2 years, so I do not think they will notice any changes.

Additionally, if you want to close either of these LW communities and make a post redirecting people to your local communities, you're welcome to do so.

Local servers in the fediverse for local communities makes a lot of sense. As long as your local instance is stable enough.
