What about links from official sources? I posted a link from Viz today. The latest chapter is free to read for 3 weeks, then it will be behind a paywall.

Is anyone reading Embers? I am really loving this one. I am not very much into sports manga, but thus is pretty great.

1. Horimiya
2. Daily lives of Highschool boys (more comedy than SoL)
3. Aharen san wa Hakarenai
4. Akebi Chan no Sailor Fuku - Comment on [Discussion] Momose Akira's First Love Struggles - Ch. 22 6 days ago:
Also, the series is just so great overall. The art, the comedy, the characters and their backstory. I have not laughed like this in a while.

Nice assist
- Comment on [DISC] The New Gate - Ch. 111 1 week ago:
Also, did not know there was an anime adaptation.
- Comment on [DISC] The New Gate - Ch. 111 1 week ago:
Personally, I really liked the first 4 volume, 5 & 6 was good, after that it was so boring.
- Comment on [DISC] The New Gate - Ch. 111 1 week ago:
The current arc is so boring. They just keep introducing new characters and making them fight without much of any meaningful development.

I thought this was not very popular. I guess I was wrong.
- Comment on It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System 1 week ago:
TBH, I'd AI can screw up the education system so fast then it is the fault in the education system. AI is bad, but our education system is not good either.
- Comment on Manga General Discussion Thread - RIP MangaDex Edition [2025, Week 21] 1 week ago:
Even if an official source is available in your region, it is still pretty bad. Kodansha's K manga was available in my region from this year, so I wanted to read official translations to support the manga, but their convoluted payment system with all the coin/ticket/exp/premium system is atrocious. Compared to them Viz's app is god sent. And they wonder why people pirate this stuff.
Also, I have a feeling that all this massive DMCA was a result of their push in new markets.

Another red haired protagonist from Kawaguchi. Hope this one lasts longer.

This manga is just amazing
- Comment on Indian Government orders censoring of accounts on X 3 weeks ago:
Also, remember the legal battle Elon had against Brazil over suspending some 5 users. It seems like Musk just follows order from governments that are authoritarian.
- Comment on [DISC] Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! - Chapter 72.2 4 weeks ago:
The current arc has been very confusing for me. I am not very clear about what is going on. Feels like I missed some part of the story.

The first series that came to mind was Fate. There are a lot of fan orders.

Ooh sorry, I thinking like Misskey. In the English translation, they use note and renote to replace tweet and re-tweet from Twitter era

rename boosting to re-tootin
I would say reserve re-tootin for when quote post lands on mastodon

Stop fucking tagging literally anyone who was ever involved in a thread
OMG yes. It is so annoying it is like someone keep hitting reply all in an email. And it is not just mastodon, *key does this too. - Comment on John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed 2 months ago:
Someone on mastodon told me, if you haven't found someone on fedi, you ate probably not looking hard enough. But no, I don't think they are on fedi

This doesn't answer your question completely, but you get an idea of what is possible - Comment on Can you guys recommend romance manga? 2 months ago:
Here are a few lesser known manga
- Kyou mo Veranda de (is similar to telework)
- Misumi-san Can't See Through
- Tonari no Seki no Yatsu ga Souiu Me de Mitekuru
- Kesa Mo Yuraretemasu (one of my favorite, it is heavier on the comedy and lighter on the romance)
- Alice-san Chi no Iroribata (age-gap romance)
- Ao no Hana, Utsuwa no Mori
- Haru no Noroi (a very dark romance, with some elements of suicide)
- Comment on Where to find posts reshared by me or by others? 2 months ago:
I feel like there should be a dedicated fedihelp community for stuff like this. Also, if you have any microblog account (like mastodon), try asking for help with hashtags like #fedihelp or mentioning the account @FediTips@social.growyourown.services if you don't get any answer here.

I see that I forgot to add a question mark and incurred the wrath of some very opinionated lemmy users.

I swear I have seen this "free speech instance" nonsense at least 3 or 4 times before this in the last month. All with similar combination of words. This is probably a same troll.
