    Tbh, and I plan to do this for piefed.social soon (and rimu has given me the go-ahead) - abandoned discarded communities with literally zero posts need to be purged by instances. It’s just clutter.

    If a community was active and then isn’t, that’s fine, but a lot of communities are made and then never used.

      Cool, it’s a good idea. But there are also other instances.

      Then there is the issue of communities with a large number of subs but where the last post was 7 months ago and they have 0 MAUs. While a community with a lot less subs can have several posts per week and at least some MAUs (couple of hundred).
