I remember reading about this on Bluesky. Nice to see a more forward MC, and pleased to see a bridged BlueSky! I was doing that with mine. Last I actually checked, I don't think Mastodon was bridging my BlueSky over so I have to check that.
As far as I remember, MLB on Lemmy was one person posting articles, and I am way too casual in my MLB consumption to contribute anything to baseball communities.
Small and chill. I was only asking about IF, which was absorbed under !adventuregames (I think the two are separate genres?). I'll respect your wishes and avoid posting pure IF there! Thank you for replying
Well, lemm.ee went kersplat. Wondering if we and !visualnovels@ani.social should absorb it or not. @Essence_of_Meh@lemmy.world
Thought about this because I came across https://www.filfre.net/2025/09/choose-your-own-adventure/ and it was a good read and wanted to post it somewhere here.
Hey, thanks for taking up the torch!
Not as active on Lemmy as much, but still trying to keep my communities active. For this account that would be !otomegames@ani.social. Not much engagement, as far as I know English-speaking otome fandom is on BlueSky (so am I), Twitter (nnnnope), and Reddit (account I haven't been using since Lemmy but still exists for saved posts I never excavated out of there).
People care about their identity on Reddit? I always used it as a sort-of anonymous forum, except with usernames, less likelihood to get told rancid things than on a truly anonymous platform with no accounts to ban, and if you were reading some original stories on Reddit you could recognize the author's name.
Instagram was something I used under my real name to keep up with real life friends, so yeah I care about my identity there, but I'm aware some people use it less as a real life social media and more as a content platform.
Turned up my nose at TikTok, which has proven to be the correct option for online approval years after I made the decision to ignore it.
Seeing mobile grow makes me seriously hope that console and PC stay relevant. I'd like nice premium otome to play, freemium drives me nuts, but worst comes to worst even if a freemium hellscape takes over and few to no console/PC releases happen, at least I can play my giant backlog of already-existing otome.
Kbin used to try to do this. Not so sure about Mbin, maybe it does. Glad to see a Fediverse option trying to implement something other ones implemented.
Although I am curious how many people take the approach of clicking a random active user online—I know I come to these thread-based forums to discuss common interests, and would never use the feature myself because 1) no guarantee the active user has common interests 2) I would feel like a weird stalker. Curious about the mindset of those who do—and not trying to accuse them of being stalkers just because I personally would feel like one taking that approach.
Yep, I made sure Elevator7009@lemmy.zip and Elevator7009@lemmy.world do not have overlapping subs with Elevator7009@ani.social. Although I admit sometimes any of them may weigh in on Fedigrow, only one is actually subbed there, and I do take care to avoid upvoting or downvoting the same post twice.
xcancel can be swapped for twitter in an URL and still get the post if I recall correctly
premise sounds interesting, hope it gets better than MTL
The article's assessment of the fan reaction to a boycott feels pretty in line with what I saw happening with Infold/Papergames' other recent game aimed at women, Infinity Nikki, and peoples' sentiments about that particular boycott, or #girlcott (which I think was what people started using to talk about it once posts with "boycott" started getting censored in official Infinity Nikki communities). Two blowups on big properties in relatively quick succession, wonder how they'll handle this.

I agree on gray area. I feel the type who's super into privacy would like us so long as our caveats are super upfront when we advertise. We're "private" in that we have no trackers or other surveillance to block, but we are not private in how ActivityPub works (at least from what I remember when Fedi was new, forgot it all by now) and that definitely has kept me from using, say, PixelFed and posting my real life pictures on there and trying to migrate all my friends over to put their family pictures, vacation pictures, "feelin myself today" pictures there too.
