@Leicaguy2 we thought about that but we are worried that our handle will be sold to a bad actor who could post hate speech, misinformation etc.

Also I think it’s helpful for people looking for us there at any point in the future to learn why we stopped and where to find us now.

100% Agree.
If you do have to post anything, then best to turn comments off and link it to a #Mastodon Post.
