There was a user on the subreddit that was willing to at least try setting up an instance. Problem is our community is huge, and apparently we were rivaling r/videos in user engagement on reddit, which means it would probably be somewhat complex to set up an instance of our own. It would also be a whole different kind of moderation for the mods, because it would be moderating a whole server and not just a single community.

I’m still waiting to see what the mods end up doing, but at least we have a small spot claimed here for now.
