One last thing: how do I add stuff like whether the community is 18+? And I categorized a Reddit subreddit but the corresponding Fediverse community remains uncategorized. How do I fix that?

You might want to put where we can communicate with you somewhere. I was looking around on the site for a Contact Me form and did a few searches to find the source code online so I could make an issue (think "site:github.com fediverser") and didn't find you. I'm lucky you were here today.

I also found that when I am trying to add a recommended Fediverse alternative to a subreddit, the heading says "Recommended Subreddit" and not "Recommended Community".

Curious if I have to add a community to the database in the first place before I can make it a Recommended ~~Subreddit~~ Community, or if it'll be added if I paste the link into Recommended Community first without any other action (I noticed both adding a community to the database and pasting the link in Recommended Community make me grab the full URL so I was curious).

You may also want to make the Subreddit field case-insensitive in case of duplicate additions. I unknowingly added a dupe subreddit because the version already there was the subreddit name in full lowercase instead of with the first letter capitalized like I saw it in the Reddit URL and the sub sidebar.

I'll be honest, I never thought you were a troll. But people might think you are because you seem to a lot of trouble finding information on your own without asking another human for help, while being quite active here, and your comments are always short, from what I've seen of them. Disclaimer: I never stalked your profile to see everything, but I do see you around a lot just by naturally using the Fediverse.

Oh hey, on fanaticus.social! I discovered that a little while ago and I am glad people are putting sports communities on the sports instance. I understand the importance of decentralization and that it is good to have several communities about the same thing on different servers, but I first found an MLB community somewhere totally elsewhere than the sports instance, so it pleases me to see someone using the sports instance for sports. I like the idea of interest category instances, like how programming has programming.dev and lots of communities that have to do with programming (such as different ones for different programming languages, for funny stuff, etc.).

I don't know much about the things your chosen communities are about, unfortunately, so sorry I cannot really help or post. Except…

A post on r/NFL that stuck with me was the one where they go through all the mascots and find out which teams have fewer fans than the thing they are named after, with count of fans guessed based off something like Facebook likes. Maybe I'll do something like that but for college football. I also remember a video on YouTube ranking some kind of team (forget what sport) by how much their mascot would weigh. Although that might be a bit high-effort for someone like me who doesn't have much interest in football. Now I'm thinking of that MLB post with the names of the MLB teams if they went by the name of the most common animal in their… region? home state? and spoiler alert it was all ants.

I think it's out of Early Access, I checked its Steam page and see no "Early Access". I got it and bounced off of it very quickly, maybe I'll try again?

The content/users aren't here so I'm stubbornly trying to post content and comment whenever I can.

Even if I shout into the void, or get a few upvotes and little other engagement.

Although I understand it's not for everyone, I encourage you to help out with that ;-;

I love pictures of buns mid-hop

 

Aside from word of mouth here.

Aware of Reddit's r/incrementalgames, https://galaxy.click, and whatever database was linked on the Reddit sidebar. I did hear about the 2024 game jam.

I thought you closed Fundamental, feeling it had come to an end. Replaying? (It's possible I missed something because not all the weekly posts federated over to me.)

How does it compare to Magic Research 1? I was enjoying that but the dungeon combat portion turned me off. Especially because as far as I got (didn't finish), you, the headmaster of a wizarding school, basically had to use a sword to win. Not exactly my magical wizard fantasy.

 

Personally found the background music very distracting, I suggest muting the video.

Finally, my plight of looking for "jumping bunnies" "hopping bunnies" "jumping bunny" and other permutations of that phrase on YouTube and only turning up with this one great video which I've seen a million times, children's songs, and videos that contain bunnies but very few/no hops is done. My search has turned up a video of bunnies hopping that isn't the one I've already seen a million times.

 

Most likely screams of happiness, according to the comments.

 

Especially stuff not mentioned in the tutorial, or that isn't intuitive at all. If it is relevant, I just hit Worthy Village (the one you get after schools/healthcare/garbage/taxes) and saved and quit to go eat dinner. I've enjoyed my time so far.

 

I assume [email protected] is for just that, and promoting new instances is unacceptable there. Where is an appropriate place to advertise a new instance?

Asking for one that is not my own. Decentralization is cool and I literally just found out about the existence of https://fanaticus.social/, a sports instance, from checking the [email protected] sidebar. I'd like to help this sports instance get attention and bolster its existing communities. I don't know where to go besides finding big preexisting sports communities and mentioning its existence there.

 

I'm currently holding off on buying it because it's the kind of game that will eat up my life in a way I just don't have time for right now, and I figure the price will drop or it'll go on a better sale than it has been on before by the time I have time to play.

Also worth mentioning spoiler formatting:

Spoilers for Baldur's Gate 3: Something Happens This paragraph talks about something that happened at the end of the game! This paragraph also talks about something that happened at the end of the game!

appears as

Spoilers for Baldur's Gate 3: Something HappensThis paragraph talks about something that happened at the end of the game!

This paragraph also talks about something that happened at the end of the game!

for both Kbin and Lemmy folks, though if you are on an app there is a chance it won't display properly for you as some Lemmy apps don't implement this.

 

I probably should not have been laughing when the bunnies fought and the person put an object between them to stop it and started massaging the two against each other. I blame the background music.

 

I normally wouldn't blatantly advertise like this on a community for the same purpose, having two different communities to increase diversity and have a safe place for people to go to in case one community's instance goes down is great, but otome is pretty niche especially on the Fediverse, this is a rather inactive community with more subscribers than an active otome community, and I'd like to talk otome without having to go back to Reddit (r/otomegames is lovely, nothing against them, just want to make the full break from Reddit which is hard when some niche communities don't have a decent following off of it).

The last post here has been from a lovely person who subscribes to [email protected], and before them a 9-month old post. I am aware the community is fairly new, but I also used to post on [email protected] (on kbin.social) until I found out it was having federation issues that might not get fixed, so I opened a new one. But I have a record of actual activity on the Fediverse and otome posting (though I dropped off due to lack of activity on kbin.social, not realizing it was partially due to nobody seeing it—some posts can only be seen if you go to https://kbin.run/[email protected], and apparently not just due to the "nobody is subscribed so of course it didn't federate" issue), so you can likely trust I'll keep posting on this new community too.

Otome Games (kbin.run)

Otome games are video games targeted towards women, where a female protagonist can romance male love interests as a major part of the game.

Why you might recognize this communityI've been posting over at [email protected] (at kbin.social), even advertising it here, until someone pointed out they couldn't see any posts unless they went to https://kbin.run/m/[email protected]. I checked and kbin.social has been down for a long while. I deleted the advertisement, made a community on kbin.run (which has been steadily running ever since I joined it about a year ago, and others have let me know they can see my posts), and now here I am advertising the kbin.run version!

[email protected]

Alternate link. For any other Kbin/Mbin users browsing that want to advertise a community, the link I used here is /c/[email protected], not /m/[email protected].
