Hey everyone. What seems to have been established itself as the main anime related instance, ani.social, has been defederated from Lemmy.ml.

I am wondering if it would be better to move this community over here so I will copy my posts from lemmy.ml here in ani.social for a while as well and then see where more engagement is happening. Since I create the posts by hand (I can’t program a bot) I don’t want to have this a permanent solution, but I’ll give it at least a few months or until it’s clear where the greener pastures are.

So basically:

  1. There is a new LightNovel community on ani.social now
  2. You can all vote where the permanent home should be by using whichever you like better.

      Relevant detail: DO NOT LINK ani.social in lemmy.ml, otherwise the admins there will use it as an excuse to silence the discussion about migrating the community to this instance, under the lying allegation that it’s a “pedo instance”.

      Instead, it’s better to say that you’re migrating it to the anime instance that can be found in Lemmy Explorer.

        Honestly, if they decide to ban the post, community or me because of this, it would only turn something that isn’t an easy decision for me to make, into something that is.

          If the post links ani.social, they’ll likely just remove it at first. Then if you insist on emigrating the comm they’ll look for another excuse to get rid of you. Then one of the admins will say “I’ve read a few pages of a LN once! So we should totally keep a LN community in a FLOSS+privacy instance! lol.” and recruit new mods without explaining what happened with you.

          That’s basically what happened in !anime@lemmy.ml.
