This place starting to feel like home yet?
Mastodon needs to absorb a critical mass of the users who drive content on Twitter in order to be a viable replacement. A Lemmy community only needs enough members to keep itself fairly active.
I think for now the posts should be manually created. Having too many posts without any comments would make this place look like a ghost town.
The dream would be to have episode discussion generation built into a separate instance of lemmy dedicated to anime stuff, but we're not there yet.
