That's 'just' a collective action problem, solving which is essentially impossible.
Communities have gravity, and its incredibly difficult to escape those gravity wells. Even if the power-users that produce valuable content move somewhere else, the subreddits they used will just link to that content, but keep the discussion on Reddit.
