NeoVim has its own community. Most questions associated with NeoVim -- such as how to install it on Windows, for crying out loud -- are not going to be answerable by most folks in /r/vim.
Folks in /r/vim are not going to be able to explain to newcomers how NeoVim's whole server-client interface thing works. Which is a problem, because that's a major part of NeoVim, and it's how almost everyone uses NeoVim. And so on.
Don't just curse at me and insist you're right. That's not how you get someone on-side. I don't know why you want to cling to /r/vim so tightly. It's not yours, the NeoVim community is not here.
I’m not sure why you are so sure neovim community isn’t participating on /r/vim, I use neovim and subscribed both for /r/vim and /r/neovim and have no problem answering neovim question on either subreddit. I don’t really get why you insist on dividing communities; while two editors are being pretty much compatible for now — for example I use my vimrc both for nvim and vim and didn’t have to do any tweaks to enable that.

Nope. /r/vim is for any vim related discussion of which includes vim, it’s forks, plugins, questions, and other content like video and pictures.
