At least going through the mental exercise of "would you move elm-dev to reddit" is a way to avoid the frequently fallacious mental trap of "I wouldn't do this, but others should". In fact, for any move to any other system, it might actually be a good thing for elm-dev to lead the way. That way, the argument could be made "we're using it for Elm development discussions and it's working great".
