Good activity on !movies@lemm.ee, thanks to post from @Emperor@feddit.uk and @UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk

Happy to have somewhere to post film news - I get a tonne in my feed but there are so many film communities I hadn't got round to figuring out which to commit to. You helped that choice along.

Still a bit frustrating to see that the moderation team on !movies@lemmy.world isn’t doing much with that place, but that’s life I guess

In the end, you can only worry about your own communities.

Yeah, I have a habit of sharing news that only really interests me. That's why I don't share everything I come across. A friend and I used to run a website together, and I got quite used to posting the latest film trailers and interesting news that I came across. Although sometimes I found it really hard to post news about films I didn't really care about. I had to write something to accompany the video.

Me too - the algorithm offers me a range of film news and I tend to only pass on stutt that interests me but I will try harder to share a wider range.

We still managed to got !starwars@lemmy.world locked down, so there is an extend of influence we can have even on other communities

Oh indeed - it's always possible to reach out to an Admin to try and sort out any issues - they're quite obvious though, as they have duplicate communities on the same instance.
