I'm hoping I'm able to stick with the community I made, even if it never gets anywhere. It feels nice to be working on some kind of project. I need new ideas for content, though. I doubt scanning RSS feeds for relevant articles every day is gonna keep things interesting.

Edit: Guess I oughtta plug. SFF Gaming is for sci-fi and fantasy gaming of all types, from video to tabletop and larp and anything else SFF gaming related that I may not know about.

What community is it? Maybe people here will have some ideas for you

SFF Gaming is for sci-fi and fantasy gaming of all types. It's kinda broad scope but I don't really wanna narrow it too much. Something I'm wrestling with is how "mainstream" of news should I post? I won't stop others from posting things as long as they're relevant, but for example would it be constructive for me to post the story about the Talos Principle 2 release date? It's cool news but I'm sure most people will see it elsewhere so I feel like me posting it to my community would only serve to clog feeds.

that's kind of a mix of Gaming and Sci-Fi communities I am subbed to. But I will give it a try!

Yeah, one of my big challenges is carving an identity out. Also carving one out for the community badum tss Thanks for giving it a try!

Projects that might not other get many eyeballs.

Maybe you can find an interesting angle on a popular post. I saw the Talos 2 announcement and got super excited. But there was little discussion about what the story could be, which is what I am really interested in. So maybe you could start a discussion around that?

I made a post to discuss the first game. I'm playing it now and once I've beaten it I'll make a post to discuss what people expect of the second game.

That's a very good idea!
