Migrating two of my favorite Reddit communities with the launch of TopCharacterTropes and TopCharacterDesigns!

Each post lists examples of a notable design pattern or trope, and commenters are encouraged to either list other examples or comment on how much they love (or hate!) the examples or tropes in question.

From an analysis standpoint, I find it really interesting to examine where the same blueprint can go wrong or right in different pieces of media. Maybe a great idea can go wrong in execution, or maybe a terrible idea has a lot of potential. From a simple standpoint I also just like going "OH MY GOD THIS THING IS SO COOL!!!", and that's something I hope this community can always bring.

I think the concept is fascinating, but Lemmy has a much smaller and less active userbase, maybe a way to mix both communities in a single one with the theme of Tropes would work better?

I'll follow them regardless, though

Having one community would probably indeed be easier

TopCharacterTropes is basically the only subreddit I enjoy browsing anymore; the discussions there have been refreshing and enjoyable since it started becoming a more popular community. I hope to see the community on Lemmy burgeon in a similar way.
