Anime and Pics

Due to a quirk of how federation works, you cannot discover communities or magazines through search or on "all", until at least one other user on your instance has manually triggered federation to be "initialized" by searching for that exact community/magazine.

I thought it would be good to keep a list to help us all find the places wed like to participate in. So far, I've found, and created some of what is listed below. If you know about or start a new community/magazine, comment! I'll update the list.

Save this post so you can come back to it as it grows.

Mods of anime communities/magazines, consider copying parts of, or the whole list, into your sidebars.

On Lemmy, if a link does not work on your instance, paste it into search. If browsing from Kbin, replace /c/ in url with /m/ or enter the community name with an @ instead of ! in search.

Recent events

lemmy.ml has banned several anime communities over recent months. The status of anime-related content on .ml is thereby strenuous, and most of us are making an effort to move away from hosting communities on lemmy.ml as a precaution.

There is always a possibility for resolution, but as of now, lemmy.ml's admins have not been particularly accepting of the anime community, and even defederated ani.social for a while.
