Did Donald Glover leave the show because he was a token character?

Are you referencing some obscure in-joke?

I know Tina Fey name drops Glover in 30Rock (where Glover worked as a writer for a while). She references him as "that black kid on Community".

If you're honestly asking, no, he wasn't even a token character. The Community group has always been really diverse, which is where most of the comedy comes from.
