I've never viewed "disappearing" as a euphemism.
Not a Russian bot. Down voted it because GitHub is still a poor choice to host open source on nowadays. It's like someone saying "It's stupid that such and such switched to renewable energy instead of fossil fuels because they believe the world is flat. The world is not flat!" It's really missing the forest for the trees.
Moving off of GitHub is still good, even if you believe their reasoning behind their reasons is incorrect.

To be totally honest, a lot of communities aren't big enough yet to really necessitate splitting into niche communities yet. I don't know if gaming/Metroid is an example of one that does or doesn't meet that. It's just an observation.
This is a bad idea. They're different communities. Full stop. They have different moderators. They may have different rules. I'm not even convinced communities using the same URL slug on different instances would even imply they're the same topic.
It doesn't matter who made the decision when discussing people wanting to interact.
