“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics and GN's. Euro-style artistry from around the world is also welcome. ^^

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

The designated language here is English, with a traditional bias towards French, followed by other Euro languages.

What pointed me towards this solution was primarily Blaze's positive experience with such.
What delayed my personal decision was 1) new, scary health issues I've been dealing with, and 2) personal ambivalence. What swung the balance was the fact that (maybe, hopefully) I'm not going blind anytime soon, plus I was really starting to miss sharing my BD findings with the world. (more on why I feel so driven on that in a future post, perhaps)
Specifically, our new address updates from https://lemm.ee/c/eurographicnovels to https://piefed.social/c/eurographicnovels (got it?)
But why PieFed, anyway? Welp, because it will seemingly allow a bunch of our classic content to be preserved. I feel like that's very much a good thing rather than 'completely starting over.'
But what if the move doesn't work out for reasons X, Y or Z? Then we'll move to the next-best instance that I know of in the few days we have left here, and I'll be sure to mark that heavily across our sub/community, so that people will have an idea where to follow us who are looking at cached versions of EGN+.
Btw, huge thanks to Thomas Verguet & Bastien Orenge for this artwork from Magellan, which I hope to get to, one of these days. (boy, I sure seem to say that a lot, lately XD)
Oh, and sadly, I'm not quite sure how to do a group-invite to our ~1,260 subscribers to the new place. If anyone reading has some expertise on that, now would be a nice time to chime in... 😅
Btw2, "PieFed" as I understand it is not just a classic host instance, but also a significant 'dev' instance (kinda like Lemmy.ML) that's a major fork of the Lemmy software which integrates beautifully upon the Fediverse.

Hello JohnnyEnzyme,

First of all, I hope you're doing better health wise.

As said on the confirmation post, I forwarded your request to Rimu, the Piefed.social admin

Ah Blaze,
I'm such a complete doofus for not deciding on this stuff earlier, nor taking advantage of the opportunity to dang-d'ol-diddley-ol'-dangisuch* getting it done earlier, but, well... life, you know?

* ruh-roh, Flanders alert

Ah, so... thanks again, you beautiful ol' Blazer, you.
