When users make a post, they see this message

As many of you are aware, this community has been participating in the ongoing Reddit protest. As Reddit Administrators have failed to adequately address [...] we have determined that this community will be duplicated and primarily operated on to https://lemmy.ca/c/NiceVancouver**.

Your post will remain available on r/NiceVancouver for discussion, Please consider re-posting you post at https://lemmy.ca/c/NiceVancouver and making your future posts on Lemmy as well. [...]

However, it looks like the community !NiceVancouver@lemmy.ca hasn't gotten many posts, and my guess was that users see the empty community and decide it's not worth the trouble.

Since this community has the same moderation team, could we instead direct them here (possibly closing c/NiceVancouver)? I'm not as familiar with why the second Vancouver was created on Reddit. Was there a culture/content difference? If not, would it be better to combine them here on Lemmy?

NiceVancouver became a thing because of how ultracritical responses on r/Vancouver eventually became. This community is already essentially what r/niceVancouver was meant to be.
