Why can't lemmy mods or admins clean up dead communities like askhistorians and others? I know they have a hard job and everything but we need an active user base to make lemmy to thrive.?

What’s the question here? Why dont they delete inactive communities? Why dont they hand the keys over to someone else? If a community is dead, posting in it will mean it is no longer inactive at the least. If you want to see activity, make activity.

That’s not solving op’s problem.

cleaning up communities doesn’t make lemmy more active either. it may help to make active communities stand out more against inactive ones though.
