There’s another community already for patient gamers here: [email protected].
Consider consolidating to just one community to not split our relatively small group.
I’ve joined both, but will probably be more active at the other.

I don’t think trying to centralize a community that relies on a decentralized platform is a very great idea. I get what you’re going for but I think the little pocket communities add a layer of safety from bad actors.
Oh, I’m all for having more communities, I just posted this at a time when this community had a handful of people in it, and the other was also fairly small (<100 IIRC). I didn’t want people to assume that there should be a copy of each community on each instance, which kind of defeats the point of federation.
I think it’s a good idea to have a few alternatives so if there are issues (e.g. defederation, bad mods, instance goes down), people have an established community to go to. But the preference should be for fewer, larger communities than tons of really small communities. Even in Reddit, we had several gaming communities (/r/games, /r/gaming, /r/patientgamers, etc), and that was a great thing! But if there’s 100, that’s a bit much.
Agreed.
