I love the original patientgamers subreddit so I was stoked to find this community. And because lemmy seems to have a more knowledgeable crowd any topic I posted here had great engagement and discussions, despite the small community. I am too busy to be a mod but maybe I can help by sparking this discussion: what would be needed to keep this sub going?

Finally got around to trying that extension out. And wow was it significantly less useful than I was expecting.

I was first offput by its settings page. "Home instance" is clear enough, but then it also needs a list of instances to "change display". No idea what that's supposed to do.

But the real problem is that it doesn't actually do anything useful. Yeah if I'm on lemmy.world/c/patientgamers@sh.itjust.works, I can click it and be taken to aussie.zone/c/patientgamers@sh.itjust.works, but I can do that really easily manually. The actual useful convenient thing would be if I were at https://lemmy.world/post/14353571 and clicking the button took me to https://aussie.zone/post/8919002

But instead, clicking the button displays this popup:

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
