Captain_PiecesWhat niche reddit community do you want to see find a place on the fediverse?
I've seen a few people mention fighting games on here (e.g. Street Fighter). I'd be interested in that. The number of gameplay clips people would be sharing make me think it ought to be its own instance, though.
Also:
- pens, fountain pens
- mechanical keyboards
- watches
Some communities have been created for those, but don't seem to have gained much popularity.
artillectI've created https://kbin.social/m/mechanicalkeyboards, but there's nothing there yet
How would you access this from Lemmy? Does there need to be explicit federation?
I'm on lemmy.one, and I've tried https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected], but it doesn't seem to do anything but give me a 404
NinaI'm trying to get it on lemmy.ml and doing the same kind of link as you and I'm also getting a 404. It doesn't seem to be updating like yours is, but I will check back I guess. Did you do anything different while waiting for it to work?
I think I went to the search function and searched for [email protected]
Some time after that, the link started to work.
That's worked for me before on something else on a different lemmy instance, but it doesn't seem to be working for me this time. I wonder if it's because it's kbin? Not sure.
Hmm, I tried from lemmy.ml as well, as you're on that instance, and it doesn't seem to work from there. Some federation issue due to load maybe?
Possibly. I won't bug them too much right now, I'm sure there's a lot to handle.
