With lemmy.film down, where should we host the new movies community? - eviltoast

Update: requested !movies@lemm.ee :

Hello everyone,

For people interested in movies, you may have noticed that !moviesandtv@lemmy.film is now gone, unfortunately.

The community was quite active, especially with the movies discussion threads, it would be nice to create a new one elsewhere.

As Lemmyworld and lemmy.ml already have most of the active communities, I thought it would be interesting to have this one (maybe two, one for movies, one for TV) on lemm.ee ? In a similar way that !games@sh.itjust.works is a popular community on sh.itjust.works (thanks @nanoUFO@sh.itjust.works for posting there)

What do you think?

    you should probably claim the TV comm name even if you arent going to use it at the start just to make sure.

    Good point, thanks!

      But please only claim it if you really have short-term plans for it. Subreddit squatting has been a persistent problem on Reddit, and I wouldn’t want this to be repeated in the Lemmyverse.

        Definitely! That’s why I wanted another mod with me as well (see comments below). Sub squatting is a plague indeed.
