I want to add a community that is essentially the Lemmy version of an existing subreddit (r/mcmansionhell). Is this allowed?

      Awesome. I see no issue with it… only thing I’d add is that it would probably be morally encouraged, when it comes to subs with creative/non-obvious concepts to 1) allow for the mods who created the original to mod here if they want and 2) stay true to the original idea of the sub. As a homage to the mods and users who fostered the original community.

          What I’ve seen some magazines do is simply have the magazine’s explanatory text say that “this is not the same team from r/whatever from reddit, if that’s you and you want to mod here just reach out” or something. Though I imagine that makes more sense if the sub stayed privated on reddit, if they’re still reddit mods and just gave into reddit pressure I’d just tell them to stay there…
