Pretty straightforward: books and literature of all stripes can be discussed here.

Instance for Literature/Books specific communities? (beehaw.org)

Do any of you know of an instance that would be good for creating more hyper specific Literature/books communities? Not the big two lemmy.ml or lemmy.world or any that would get defederated here. Basically not any of the instances that are getting crushed ATM or are too unmoderated.

By specific, I mean fan communities for a specific author, series, genre etc.

I had spun up a Lemmy instance a few weeks ago with a focus on only books, music, movies/tv, and games. There are enough general use instances.

I'm currently the only user and even I haven't been posting. 🫢 I'd be happy to open it up if people want.

That is definitely what I would prefer. But I want to take longevity into account: Lemmy's that already have an established donation pipeline, accept community creation, somewhat discerning federation and hopefully the hosting to deal for the long haul. It would be nice to know if there is a community migration method if an instance wants to go offline.
