Having two similar communities on the same topic splits conversations, and give posters decision fatigue

Edit: some topics have consolidated their communities to avoid that, example from a few months ago: https://lemm.ee/post/46935805

Edit2: the UK community has a lot of different mod. The .org community only has one, who hasn't been active since 8 days.

!Buyeuropean is meant to be more encompassing as to include more regions such as the Balkans, Switzerland, Iceland, Andorra, Norway, Moldova, Liechtenstein, San Marino, Ukraine and the UK. I have offered to invite the !buyfromeu moderator to the the team however they have not responded.
