I think this needs to be changed or a github ticket put in requesting the change, so that if a community had been deleted for a certain amount of time, the name can be reused by someone who wants to run the community. Otherwise, it can get very annoying rather quickly when you are trying to create a new community and the name you want to use it won’t go through. This is just my opinion on this.
I wonder if this topic needs to be x-posted to !furry@lemmy.world
