Embrace Federation! The current most active community for cfb is https://fanaticus.social/c/cfb This magazine will be maintained mostly as a backup and a guidepost for new Kbinners, but new posts will be moderated normally. [MY TEAM] is better than [YOUR TEAM] and [MY RIVAL] is horrible!

So, as of July 2023 we've got about 183 subscribers here on kbin.social, and probably another 50 scattered across the fediverse.

lemmy.world/c/cfb (KBin.social link) is not some juggernaut, but they're at over 600 subs on their home instance, and probably another 100ish elsewhere? I will move my daily posting over there for, at least for a while.

Fanaticus.social is a thing now, too, but I think for now, while scraping /r/cfb is good for content to skim though, it's maybe less good for fostering discussion.

I think having a centralized forum on lemmy.world isn't a bad idea while our community grows. We can always spread back out later. Right now it just feels weird having only like 4 or 5 active voices

Edit: shameless plug for [email protected] which I've posted literally 2 tenn themed image macros in but hey, you gotta start somewhere.

Yeah, if I were the mod at kbin's cfb I might feel differently, but I have no problem putting my daily post over on world. I really like fanaticus as an idea, and I'm impressed with how well the startrek instance is working, but with the community for any cfb discussion is already so small, wading through the stream of 3* commitment posts that got very little traction with a million redditors feels more daunting than welcoming.

As an aside, cfbmemes should now federate to kbin.social, since I've subbed.
