After a week of building and curating [email protected], the community already has 58 subscribers—and it’s only getting started.
I’ve been thinking hard about the kind of place I want this to be. The vision comes down to three things:
Real conversations about games
Minimal memes
Zero outrage culture
I want this community to be about joy—a space for people who actually play video games to share what excites them. Not a dumping ground for culture wars. Not another echo chamber for Gamergate-era nonsense.
Games are for everyone. And everyone should feel comfortable digging deep here. Talk about an obscure Japanese console. Explore weird European PCs. Or break down the craft behind how a game actually got made. That’s the stuff I want to see flourish.
Here’s to the next 100 posts—and beyond. Come join in:
You don’t need to be on Piefed. Federation means you can stay on Lemmy, use whatever community you want, regardless of whatever platform it is.
The reason I’m mentioning the milestone here is because I want to build a general gaming Piefed community.
Not one that competes with this one, but one that complements it. You can enjoy multiple gaming communities, each with a different culture.
Anyway, this is the Fediverse—not Reddit, not Instagram, not TikTok. We’re not competing against each other. We’re building together.
