!startrek@lemmy.ml

A fellow fantasy player, ok that’s two of us now we just need about a thousand more.

!ukcasual@lemmy.world for casual !unitedkingdom@lemmy.ml for politics and news etc

Not the person you asked but personally I do think it’ll naturally happen that we just end up glomming together into certain communities. That’s how it tends to go with any such thing. But one slightly overlooked benefit is that splinter communities can have the same name. No passive-agressive “/c/thetopic”, “/c/realthetopic”, “/c/betterthetopic”, “/c/thetopicwithouttoxicmods” etc etc etc.

/r/eurovision, although the season just ended so it would be a bit quiet right now anyway.

/r/fantasyfootball, that season is just about to kick off so would be good timing

If you’d asked this a day earlier I’d have said /r/casualUK but we now have !ukcasual@lemmy.world

And the various specific craft subs. Currently we’re posting all craft projects to !creative@beehaw.org but sooner rather than later I think it’ll have to be split up into individual crafts because if there’s one thing crafters love even more than the actual making stuff, it’s showing off the stuff we made.

Oh well as long as it works. Probably worth a bug report.

Oh yeah weird, there should be three icons down there (the bottom one is notifications so you can see the number there at least), search is the middle one. I wonder if that’s a Firefox thing maybe, I’m on mobile Chrome.

If you hit the hamburger menu in the top right you should see the search icon appear in the dropdown.

I’m on Beehaw and managed to join this one ok. I think there’s a delay when the first person tries to search for an instance, before it actually shows up in results. Not ideal but maybe try it again now?

Dammit as if I needed another hobby rabbithole to jump down…

That’s really cool! I’ve not graduated from making to fixing quite yet (apart from a bit of darning old knitted socks) but hope to get there one day.

My main hobby is basically “making cool stuff” and I honestly think being able to make something is worth it for everyone. That could mean knitting or crochet or sewing, it could mean pottery or origami.

But it could also mean programming. I’m really into gamedev as a hobby and consider it just another part of the “making cool stuff” hobby along with all those more traditional crafts.

Bonus of course is that learning to program is a massively useful life skill in general!

I would honestly love to get into this one day. Yeah it’s got a bit of a dorky rep, but as a lifelong dork idgaf
