Background

Hello! I am the maintainer of @shinobu@ani.social. Shinobu is the !anime@lemmy.ml community bot responsible for posting episode discussion threads whenever new anime episodes air (example).

The goal of the above survey is to begin the process of establishing a community consensus for how Shinobu should be updated in order to best fit the needs of our community. The content of the survey is based upon the comments and suggestions fielded from this recent discussion on the topic.

Please note that the survey is planned to run until October 16th @ 12:00PM EDT. My goal is to honor the results of the poll however they may turn out, granted that the aforementioned results are accepted as reasonable and legitimate by the community at large.

As always, thanks for being a member of the community and doing your part to make it special! ❤️

    I unfortunately didn’t see the thread until after the poll was closed, so I wasn’t able to participate. Personally, I like the way the threads are now, although I wish they were a little bit busier. I’m trying to be the change I want to see by commenting on shows that may have 0 comments, and upvoting (what’s the proper Lemmy term for that) all the shows I’m watching. I don’t watch shows until the evening time, but I really enjoy coming on here the morning after and seeing if anyone else is watching/commenting.

    I checked out the other thread, and wasn’t really a huge fan of any of the other ideas. The closest one I could get behind was the single post per day for all the shows, which would cut down on the number of threads, but would probably be a barrier to participating in that you’d have to remember what day your show was on and may have to wade through comments on shows you’re not watching/get spoiled. Anything other than the way it is now would probably lower participation, in my opinion.
