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?
I am not sure activity has changed much. I’m getting around 8 messages on my instance (that’s not actual posts or comments, just inter-instance messages about any form of activity) per second and this has been the case that it ranges between 5-12m/s depending on time of day and day of week. This is not too different to when I started this around a year ago.
