Community dedicated to the world of Harry Potter.

Mostly focused on books and fan creations, movie content is accepted but should not overwhelm the community.

What are our thoughts regarding posts focusing on (potentially unsavoury) views held by the author of the series?

Is !harrypotter@literature.cafe community a good place to discuss them, or should we hold such discussions elsewhere?

Mod here.

Likewise.

It seems like there are multiple community members who are interested in discussing Harry Potter in a space separate from the views of the author.

Thoughts on trialling a community split of Harry Potter and JK Rowling posts? We could try it for a few weeks/month, and reassess at a later date.

Community fragmentation is always a risk in the fediverse, but I think this may be a case where separate communities are warranted.

Just sent you a DM to switch to Matrix, it might be easier to discuss this topic
