Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

MODERATORS
All of the individual games I play and not just the general "gaming" subs. Plenty of video game enthusiasts on Lemmy; not enough to geek out over specific games. Or at least... Not the ones I play.
I also think it will be a long time before those can get up and running. There is much disdain towards video game companies on lemmy, and there is much right for it to exist. It does however make any community outside of the retrogaming hard to grow without the arguing.
This is a great reason to grow those places here, though. My biggest issue with game specific communities is the fact that the game companies try to control them. Most subreddits are moderated by the game companies, and official discords are a lost cause. We really need a neutral, public place to be to talk about games where we are allowed to actually be critical of them
What games do you play?
Same. I miss r/OldWorldBlues and other strategy game communities. Most likely there aren't enough people who are interested in that mod, so maybe I'll bug the Fallout comm for that lol.
