Most of you are probably aware that lemm.ee will be shutting down by the end of this month. This means that we need to find a new home for our community. Here's a list of instances I'm considering. Please upvote the one(s) you would like.

I want to make the move soon so I'll let this poll run for a day.

Lemmy.zip

  • Has a very similar defederation policy to lemm.ee
  • IP blocks UK accounts. Not an issue for most people, but might limit potential mods who want to mod from a local account

Piefed.social

  • Piefed has really strong community moving capabilities, which means that if this instance goes down, or its rules become restrictive, then we can easily move to a different piefed instance with limited issues.
  • Has some cool features. Flairs are something I've wanted for a long time and better moderation tools standout.
  • Newer software, not as heavily tested but very active. There seems to be some issues with synchronizing subscribers, but posts and comments seem to spread very quickly in my testing.
  • Limited mobile options but I've not had issues accessing piefed communities through a lemmy account via any major Lemmy app I've tested.

Adultswim.fan

  • Topic focused instance for animated shows and cartoons
  • No blocked instances
  • I will need someone else to mod with me because it's a little tricky for me to access from work

Lemmy.world

  • Largest instance
  • Everyone has an opinion on it. I'm not going to change anyone's mind lol

Sopuli.xyz

  • I don't know much about it but it seems to be a very well regarded instance and fairly popular

On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.
