I saw the recent API charge news with Reddit and saw that people were discussing alternatives to Reddit in the event we all have to abandon it.

Joined Lemmy here and noticed one of my favorite subreddits had no Lemmy equivalent — so I created it.

I have no desire to be a mod, so if anyone wants to take on that role just let me know.

I’m just hoping people do post here if they’re checking Lemmy out and seeing what’s available community-wise.

    It’s actually a bit curious, like, what exactly about its topic of avoiding newer games makes people less likely to be asswipes? 12 months isn’t even that much and I always felt like ti should have been a wider margin, but given that the people who made posts were posting older games anyways, it was clear there was no need to worry.

      I think it self-selects for people who are engaging with the games for the games, and who want to talk about the games, with less interest for their current popularity or the media buzz surrounding the games. Thus less bandwagon hate/love/whatever.

      Probably trends older too, but that’s just a guess. It’s so easy to forget that people on the internet might be literally 12, but a lot of them are.
