Another week in the books. Let’s chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.
Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).
TIL tags are a thing in photon. That is super cool actually.
Happy to hear from others what their thoughts are on this.
Currently there is no requirement for tags in this community (so feel free to switch things up). The [DISC] convention has simply been carried over from the manga subreddit. For a while when I started this community, I was making all my posts without the [DISC] tag to try to effect change. However, it never really caught on and everybody else kept using [DISC], so I switched back. I don’t see any reason that we have to keep the same convention as reddit, but there is always a lot of inertia in trying to change a community’s culture.
The only issue I can think of is that in the world of super long light novel adaptation titles, you might run into character limits with the longer title that a different tag would have. I have run into character limits for a couple of series in the past and have had to edit down a title or two.
While this is a good point, I don’t think cutting down 6 characters would be of much help.
That’s a good point! It just popped into my brain as I was typing replies instead of going to sleep.
