A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

How to revitalize this sub? (lemm.ee)

I love the original patientgamers subreddit so I was stoked to find this community. And because lemmy seems to have a more knowledgeable crowd any topic I posted here had great engagement and discussions, despite the small community. I am too busy to be a mod but maybe I can help by sparking this discussion: what would be needed to keep this sub going?

Beehaw deliberately cuts theirs* off from two of the biggest Lemmy instances so I wouldn't expect much there.

Ohhhh, that's a good thought. Beehaw.org's pretty aggressive about defederation when they have problems with users. I'm on lemmy.today, and they haven't defederated from there, so I'm still seeing what's current on there.

Well, a direct link to see what's on there, bypassing defederations: https://beehaw.org/c/gaming

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !gaming@beehaw.org

I...appreciate the effort, bot. It's good to know that you're looking out for us.
