Something I miss from Reddit was that just about all my favorite games had their own subreddits. Like I happen to be a huge fan of Snowrunner but I don’t see any communities specifically about Snowrunner on Lemmy. But Elden Ring has a community on 2 instances with less than 100 subs total. I think the one hosted on Lemmy.world has 8 subs and 1 post. Elden Ring was game of the year in 2022!

I guess I just don’t see enough engagement on these dedicated communities to see the value in making my own Snowrunner community or any other game in general really.

Thoughts?

Love you guys!

    I think it’s a bit of an if you build it they will come situation. The userbase is growing exponentially and seeding communities is the best way to continue that organic growth. I don’t think the early adopter user is going to bounce when they see it’s a sub with limited users and posts, they’ll see a fresh start.
