Community Revival

This community is for discussion of dead communities and the planning of reviving them.
What should a post/comment look like?
A post ideally would be mentioning that community, what value it could contribute to the fediverse, how much dedication it would take and approximately how many mods there should be, and a call for volunteers.
A comment should be a suggestion, correction or volunteering.
What is a dead community?
A community which all mods are inactive for more than 3 months, and the modlog has had no activity for the same time.
Please ping all the admins in the comments too, this is necessary.
Rules
The rules are very simple.
- All posts must be about a dead community. Meta posts should be marked [META]
- Be nice.
... i will work on the icon/banner later ;)

Maybe it should consolidate with other Firefox communities instead?
Firefox@lemmy.world (besides .ml) is the biggest firefox community. There's fedia.io but that only has 77 users, but the mod is active.
I feel it would be more worth it to focus on a community with already 4,500 users and ok activity, rather than try to grow completely from scratch
It doesn't have 77 users, it has 4200 tho?
, sounds comparable to me. Additionaly it's not not on a big instance, so that's good for decentralization
Ohh, it doesn't federate properly with dbzer0, sorry 🤦♂️ I checked on my .world alt and it seems to have 1,000 instead? It's strange.
However if the mod is interested it's fine by me. @yoasif@fedia.io thoughts on consolidating @firefox@lemmy.world with @firefox@fedia.io?
