Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Game related communities (/r/tf2, /r/chess to name a few!)
Edit: Just realised I want some tech-related stuff like /r/homelab, /r/selfhosted, /r/privacy, /r/homeserver and more too
Lemmy.ml has a privacy community

gotta have one for ~~my crack addiction~~ Destiny
Same, but I have a feel that Beehaw might not be the place for them considering just how many communities we'd need to cover all of them. I'm really hoping a gaming instance pops up soon that we can federate with, I wanna my r/guildwars2, r/warframe, r/stellaris and others to see the updates and memes
Hi there! r/Warframe will have an official home at https://dormi.zone/c/warframe!
(Please tell me you can see posts and comments on here, federation with other instances has been very spotty for me so far)
coming from kbin, the answer so far is no, your server is non-connected. :/
Nice! I subscribed.
So far I see the Test post and "Look at that accuracy!"
It seems like it takes a bit of time for new posts and changes to propagate through the network. It seems to require someone to actually access it from another instance first to get that going.
How feasible is it to have communities for game genres, and then within those communities maybe some general topic threads for specific games? That's how I've imagined the fediverse space would accommodate further niche subject matter. Not sure if it's been attempted yet!
I think it'd result in a genre civil war :D Game genres are vague or not properly defined at all, and furthermore many modern games just combine them anyway.
I think if it's a big enough community having an instance for themselves is pretty good. That also lets them split it into memes, modding, lfg, roleplay or other subgroups more easily. I just don't see how would any of these communities actually fund it, it is hard enough to find good mods that volunteer them time to the community, less alone their money too.
