    Could we consolidate episode discussions over on !dungeonmeshi@ani.social?

    I will be posting them every week (@wjs018@ani.social you’re of course welcome to do so as well, but I will still have to pin them if you do). I will also be posting other content in order to drive discovery of the community, between episodes, and to maybe encourage more lemmings to pick up the show.

    I also like to delay actually posting episode discussion by a good few hours, as this “spends” the visibility spike that new posts get at a later time in the day, when people have actually had a chance to see the episode. This worked wonderfully with ep1 and a lot of comments and upvotes were netted.

    I’m of course biased, but I’m kinda taking the series under my wing so to speak and would super appreciate any co-operation on pulling the fandom together on lemmy.

      That is fine with me. I don’t want to nuke this thread that already has discussion, but glad to let you lead the threads for this series going forward. Of course, I can’t stop shinobu from posting them when she wakes up from her winter hibernation.

      edit: added link to post contents

        I wouldn’t ask, I noticed you edited in a link to the thread I just made but aside from that I don’t think anything else is warranted this week.

        My personal opinion is that episode discussions should be in the same place (preferably !episode_discussion though I understand shinobu is down right now), so they can be discovered by non-core fan of series.

        Perhaps if there is some way to add a function to shinobu to include a custom blob for each show it can link to a local fan community of a show in its posts if one exists. Failing that, perhaps a thread here each season linking the season’s show to local communities would be good for discovery.

      Nah man. The point of feddy is freedom. You can post wherever whenever you want. Don’t like it can jolly well go somewhere else.

        Nah, I see the point here. Our community is still small, so fragmenting discussion just means there is less of it. That being said, I won’t delete threads that people want to make about this show in this community going forward (while shinobu is still on her vision quest). Not everybody wants to subscribe to a community dedicated to a single seasonal show.

          I know I actively avoid those communities for works based on a manga, because they often have spoilers show up by way of fanart/etc/. It’s just not a suitable place for general discussion of a currently airing anime.

        It’s not like I demanded OP delete this thread, I simply asked a fellow mod to work together with me in maintaining discussion threads for a series we both enjoy, rather than split our efforts.

        By all means, post whatever wherever… but take that too far and we’d all be posting in our own communities with single digit subscribers, few actual interactions ever occurring.
