[Discussion] About a more structured movies and TV community (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hello everyone,

Opening that thread following the latest discussions on !moviesandtv@lemm.ee.

I am now suggesting to retake this community or create another one that would be more structured, especially

  • weekly "what have you been watching lately" thread
  • dedicated threads for shows and TV. Discoverability of those threads would be eased by having a research bar in the sidebar.

What do you people think? Should we use this community, or create another one? If the latter, what would be the name? /c/moviestvreviews? /c/moviestvdiscussions? Feel free to share your suggestions

Dearest ᴇᴍᴘᴇʀᴏʀ 帝,

Yes, I was the other admin @ lemmy.film, "second in command" if you will. No, I have no insights regarding what happened over there as it wasn't my server/instance. You nailed the timeline of events; after many attempts to contact @jayrod@lemmy.film, just like all of you, one day I went to lemmy.film only to see that Cloudflare "Web server is down" page. Hey, fun while it lasted and all that.

If I may (now that you've woken me up), I think it's kind of...~~dickish~~ uncool...for this community to ~~steal~~ appropriate the graphics from !moviesandtv@lemmy.film. I mean, they weren't mine or anything but still. Grave robbing, anybody? What does it take to come up with something new?

It was more as a hommage than anything else. Do you know where it came from?

Also, you might want to raise those concerns to !moviesandtv@lemm.ee, they are in the same case
