( How Crunchyroll is ruining its subtitles, how we got here, and why it matters. )
Considering the average Dreamwidth user probably remembers when Crunchyroll was a piracy site, as well as the golden age of fansubbing, I'm wondering what people's preferred solution for monopolization, and subsequent decrease in quality, of official anime streaming is. Should we focus our efforts more on pressuring Crunchyroll (and streaming services at large) to fix its subtitles, or on re-invigorating and suporting fansub groups and fansub culture?

goals_on_dw is a community for people who like goals and goal setting. A key focus is New Year's resolutions, that being among the most popular contexts for such activities. Although the most common time is January 1, "new year" can also refer to other calendars or cultures, whatever works for you. Alternatively, just pick a time that works for you and go for it. You can introduce yourself or make new friends here. ysabetwordsmith) wrote in dw_community_promo2025-10-28 01:41 am newcomers is a community for people who are just getting started on Dreamwidth, in the tradition of twitter_refugees and reddit_refugees. This community supports former users of other platforms who are moving to Dreamwidth because their previous platform has become untenable or has closed. As such, it will increase activity with each wave of new users, in hopes of helping them get settled in Dreamwidth so they want to stick around. It also serves previous users returning after a long hiatus, people who want to do more with a Dreamwidth blog that was only intermittent, or anyone else who wants help connecting and figuring out how to use this venue.fennectik) wrote in anime_manga2025-10-25 04:47 pm

mark) wrote in dw_maintenance2025-10-25 08:42 amGood morning, afternoon, and evening!
We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)
I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.
Ta for now!
