What are our thoughts regarding posts focusing on (potentially unsavoury) views held by the author of the series?

Is !harrypotter@literature.cafe community a good place to discuss them, or should we hold such discussions elsewhere?

      The wording was “popular”, not “most active”. By subscriber numbers alone I think the dormant Leaky Cauldron one is bigger?

      And the fediverse is big, I’m pretty sure that somewhere on mastodon you’d find a more popular group of people for this topic than here.

        Subscribers are not the best metric for community activity, a lot of communities have high subscribers counts but low activity for different reasons (e.g. inactive accounts having subbed a while ago)

        Leaky Cauldron one

        The subscribers there will soon be 0 as the instance will close in July (https://diagonlemmy.social/post/111137)

        And the fediverse is big, I’m pretty sure that somewhere on mastodon you’d find a more popular group of people for this topic than here.

        Does Mastodon properly support groups nowadays? That was still in progress last time I checked.

          Again, we’re talking semantics here. The original phrasing was “popular”, not “active”/“activity”.

          And when I say communities regarding mastodon, I’m not talking about the technical feature of groups but rather individuals interacting with each others in their posting.
