[Meta] How should we handle dedicated movie discussions? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hello everyone,

Follow up from a thread I opened a month ago (https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/6090857)

The main issue I see with creating Movie Discussion threads in this community is that there is no way to link them in a megathread, as post links depend on your instance, and there is no way to have a link that would work for everyone (except relying on add-ons such as Instance Helper, but that's not idea). So for people to see them, you either need to have them pinned, cluttering the community, or you need to rely on people on finding them (e.g. adding a shortcut in the sidebar with a precreated search, however I don't know if that would work on mobile clients, and visibility wouldn't probably be the best).

One way to handle this would be to use another community dedicated to movie discussions threads, were only that type of content would be allowed.

There is currently [email protected] that we do not currently use but that could fit that need.

What do you guys think?

I don't mind them being pinned and cluttering up the top for a week or two, but that's just me.
