I think there’s a fear that if a niche subreddit goes private permanently that community will be lost unless there’s an analogue set up here.
There’s going to be a learning curve, and I’d imagine that specific instances will eventually pop up as the user base grows in size and grows more comfortable with the platform.
I think for now the posts should be manually created. Having too many posts without any comments would make this place look like a ghost town.
The dream would be to have episode discussion generation built into a separate instance of lemmy dedicated to anime stuff, but we’re not there yet.
