Basically c/chat + c/gaming. Anything that increases socializing is good especially considering loneliness is on the rise in modern times.
The Lemmyverse chess event just ended https://lemmy.ca/post/292674 which is the most collaborative fedi gaming thing I’ve heard of.
Lemmygrad might have a video gaming together thing too.
List what multiplayer games you’re willing to play with other Fedizens.
Minecraft is always great for socializing and building community. maybe as FOSS enthusiasts we’d play Minetest instead
Would love to see a Lemmy Minetest server!
Best i found is https://social.tchncs.de/@illunaminetest, (https://illuna-minetest.tk/)
which isn’t lemmy, but they at least have a fediverse promo acct. If we get a few lemmyverse players on their server, eventually someone could reach out and get them to make a lemmy sub.
or just make an unofficial sub, since creating community is the goal
!minecraft@lemmy.ca
I second this.
