Background

Hello! I am the maintainer of @[email protected]. Shinobu is the [email protected] 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! ❤️

Slightly off-topic, but I think ani.social is not properly getting federated with kbin.social.
I can't see any episode discussion posts posted by shinobu on [email protected] .

Hey RealM, as @[email protected] has already suggested, this is a kbin quirk. It's documented on the kbin Codeberg bug tracker as #350. The kbin maintainers have not yet commented on whether this is intended behavior or a bug, but it does not appear as if anything will be done about the problem in the near future.

The only course of action that I could possibly take to work around the issue is to remove the bot flag from @[email protected]. Unfortunately, doing this would violate the right of Lemmy users to opt out of seeing bot activity -- not to mention also violate the ToS of numerous instances (including ani.social)

Thanks for the context!
Yeah, I suppose I will just have to create a new account on lemmy then :)
