I remember that there was a bot on reddit with a bunch of good aliases that linked to the series on anime list sites.
Someone could fork it and modify it to work with lemmy
https://github.com/Nihilate/Roboragi
I would be interested in a wiki for general purpose recommendations
The bot is defenietely beneficial but I don't know where to post disscussion threads
Forking roboragi is not a bad idea. I am going to have to take a look through the code, but it could be as easy as replacing PRAW with pythorhead so that it listens to/posts to lemmy instead of reddit.
As for discussion threads, right now (and for the rest of this season), you just create a thread in this community. The only rules are:
That's it really. When I see the discussion post in this community, I will add it to the giant table of winter season discussion threads.
Oh so !episode_discussion@ani.social is getting phased out from the sound of it. I'm out of the loop and was curious how that community fit into the picture, this cleared it up, assuming I interpreted correctly.
Yeah, I think it is time. There is a bit of history I could go into about episode discussion threads, but I don't really have a lot of time today. However, that community was initially separated from the main community because there just wasn't enough activity in /c/anime to justify making all those posts here as they would drown out anything else. I think that a couple things have made that problem a lot less worrisome:
I am still figuring out exactly what the model will look like going forward, but I think it is clear from the experiment this season that this community can bear the volume of discussion threads now.
That makes sense to me, a hybrid of /c/anime and series-specific /c/s depending on popularity. That makes more sense than /c/episode_discussion since that's categorized on the type of content, rather than categorized by a community of people interested in it. So I agree with the future vision. Appreciate you taking the time to explain!
