That sucks, but switching to another (friendlier) instance is always an option.
I don't see any Germans... Just kidding Germans!!
Haha appreciate it 😁
I used to be a mod for r/streetwear (millions of subscribers). Before the blackout we'd constantly be getting posts throughout the day. Now when I lurk, I see 2 posts a day on average, sometimes none. The community is dead compared to before the blackout, but they didn't migrate to lemmy. Maybe they shifted to discord or just quit reddit-like social media, idk.
P.S. shameless plug for !streetwear@lemmy.world 😋
Isn't nuclear power easier than this mithril stuff?
Not knowing the language is a problem which doesn't fully eliminate the issue, you're right, but it does eliminate the possibility of changing the written scriptures. As a result there will always be thinkers who can return to the original text and come to their own conclusions, challenging the prevailing thoughts of their region or era, something that has repeatedly occurred in Muslim history.

I've seen this work in a microblog format. DM would describe the scenario and people would respond with what they think the character should do. DM would choose one move (not sure if it was random or the move they found most interesting) and then explain what happened. So the story had a single character controlled by the group. It was light-hearted, low-stakes fun :)
Hope you start the community and give it a shot. Experiment to find the format that works best.
