Hello everyone,

I haven’t been that active in that community, it probably deserves better.

There are a few questions that should probably be asked:

1. Should we move the community to another instance?

As some of you may know, .ml is a polarizing instance (the reasons why are beyond the scope of this post, but feel free to have a look at https://lemm.ee/post/53735049 for instance). I’ve seen quite a few people blocking .ml in their settings, so any community hosted here could suffer from that.

2. What potential instances could we move this community to?

There are a few that come to mind

• https://literature.cafe/ is an instance related to literature and reading, so would fit the topic
• https://lemm.ee/ is my general recommendation for generalists instances (Lemmy.world already centralizes a lot of the communities, some decisions they make tend to impact all of them, such as this one: https://lemmy.world/post/24135976)

If you have any other you would like to suggest, feel free.

3. Would a potential migration have an impact?

This community isn’t that active to begin with, so if have a pinned post here about the new community, lock it, and promote it on a few other places, that should be enough.

Other mods?

If someone wants to jump in as a mod, feel free! I’m the only one left (the two others mods accounts have been deleted), and having other people would probably help.

That’s it for now, see you in the comments!
