Just a reminder that we have moved to piefed.social due to lemm.ee shutting down. Please head over to !animation@piefed.social if you are still subscribed here.

Thanks!

Well, https://piefed.social/ won the vote in dominating fashion. I'm not mad about it. I will admit my personal preference was lemmy.zip with piefed a close second.

I know the new community will take a while to grow to the level of this one. I want to take this moment to thank everyone who has participated here and also thank the admins of https://lemm.ee/ for the work they've put in over the past few years in this instance.

I will make a post once the transition is complete.

Most of you are probably aware that lemm.ee will be shutting down by the end of this month. This means that we need to find a new home for our community. Here's a list of instances I'm considering. Please upvote the one(s) you would like.

I want to make the move soon so I'll let this poll run for a day.

Lemmy.zip

• Has a very similar defederation policy to lemm.ee
• IP blocks UK accounts. Not an issue for most people, but might limit potential mods who want to mod from a local account

Piefed.social

• Piefed has really strong community moving capabilities, which means that if this instance goes down, or its rules become restrictive, then we can easily move to a different piefed instance with limited issues.
• Has some cool features. Flairs are something I've wanted for a long time and better moderation tools standout.
• Newer software, not as heavily tested but very active. There seems to be some issues with synchronizing subscribers, but posts and comments seem to spread very quickly in my testing.
• Limited mobile options but I've not had issues accessing piefed communities through a lemmy account via any major Lemmy app I've tested.

Adultswim.fan

• Topic focused instance for animated shows and cartoons
• No blocked instances
• I will need someone else to mod with me because it's a little tricky for me to access from work

Lemmy.world

• Largest instance
• Everyone has an opinion on it. I'm not going to change anyone's mind lol

Sopuli.xyz

• I don't know much about it but it seems to be a very well regarded instance and fairly popular

With the announcement that lemm.ee will be shutting down on June 30th, this community will unfortunately need a new home. Do you have a place in mind, @darakan@lemm.ee ?

🎉 1K And A Heartfelt Thank You

It’s already been over a month since we crossed the 1,000-subscriber milestone! I wanted to take a moment to thank every single one of you for being part of this community. When I took over as moderator just over a year ago, we were a small group of ~30 subs with virtually no engagement. Seeing a relatively niche space like this grow has been very exciting. This is the first community (lemmy or otherwise) that I've moderated and helped grow and I'm grateful for anyone who has posted, commented or upvoted here.

I also want to give a special shoutout to @Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com who has been very helpful over the past year. And has really been a beacon of the broader community as well.

Let’s Talk Art

While I’m happy to celebrate this milestone, the real reason for this post is because I have a request: Do we have any artists or graphic designers here?

I’d love to commission a custom banner that captures the essence of animation and aligns with our community’s vibe. If you’re interested (or know someone who might be), please comment below or message me directly. I’m happy to discuss details, vision, and compensation. I’d much rather collaborate with members here before looking elsewhere.

Thanks again for making this corner of the internet so nice and enjoyable. Here's to a thousand more.

with love, from !steamedhams@lemmy.ca

My daughter was introduced to TOH by her girlfriend and is obsessed. Problem is there isn't very much of it and she's watching it again and again on repeat. Does anyone know of anything she could watch to switch it up that has a similar vibe?

This took me about 7 months to complete, it's a fan animation of a hilarious DND podcast run by some equally hilarious Australian comedians called the dragon friends. The animation starts rough but I feel you can see improvement as you near the end, hope you enjoy it!
