RedHat brought Ansible in 2015 and in 2019 IBM brought RedHat, while I’m not aware that this had any direct impact on the project I’m glad to hear that a proposal to move Ansible community content to a new ansible.community
domain name has been passed and there is a GitHub issue to create a Ansible community Discourse forum, I think this could be great for getting help, so I’d encourage Ansible users here to consider voting for the Discourse forum to be created.
