For the past couple of weeks, some of us moderators of the subreddit r/Silksong, have been working on an exciting project. We’ve created a lemmy instance for fans of indie games. We officially run and support this instance and the Silksong community on it. Please check it out at !Silksong@indie-ver.se

I invite you, current users of the Fedi-verse, to join us at @indie-ver.se, subscribe and interact with the communities there, as they grow. So we can support both a more free internet, and indie game communities. See you soon!

lemmy-federate is the wrong solution to this problem. It duplicates data on all instances, even those with no subscribers. it increases the load and the amount of storage requirements for small instances

What we need is a system where admins can set up a separate discovery service, and include that in search results. Mastodon is finally doing something in this direction, and Lemmy/PieFed/mbin would benefit a lot to adopt it.
