Given the variety of perspectives shared in that thread, I don't think that a single community will be able to satisfy everyone.

As such, I have come up with the following split:

While it does fragment the userbase (always a risk with in the fediverse), it would put give individual users the maximum amount of choice for what posts they wish to see in their feed, and what topics they wish to discuss.

I am interested in hearing people's thoughts.

I'm not certain why we need to split at all considering the purpose of the original instance.

all that needs to happen is the jkrowling instance. i don't see anyone staying in a community that does both because it doesn't do either type of content well.

the goal of this place was to be exactly as you propose the just harrypotter instance to be. so why not let the jkrowling go to that dedicated intance and call it good?

The most active literature.cafe admin is not comfortable implementing a "Harry Potter only" rule in this community, and I wish to respect that.

An interesting point; only time will tell, I suppose.
