Is it possible to consolidate with a ML community? (lemmy.world)

I mod and post at [email protected].

There is also [email protected], it has much more subs (~5K), but a lot less engagement. The ML community's mod also seems to have deleted their account?

I am not acquainted with the process for community consolidation and I am not sure if ML takes part in such initiatives. Do I need to reach out to the ML admins? What would be the next step if I wanted to propose [email protected] to be merged into [email protected] ?

You only need a few dozen users active in each community to make them worth while.

A few dozen active posters is a lot by Lemmy standards. Popular topics like [email protected] have less than 10.
