I’ve always enjoyed the Xbox Gamepass Reddit and found some hidden gems, because people posted recommendations there. Would it be useful to have a separate community on Lemmy as well? Or should we do something similar on this community instead of creating a new one? I’ve noticed my Play Later is shrinking whereas previously it was only growing.
Yeah, agreed, a separate community may not be the right thing at this stage. Thanks for your response.
The weekly thread, what would you think the topic should be? Just asking people to post Gamepass recommendations? Think I can do that! I’ve also tried a month or so ago to write a bot to do weekly posts on another community, but was broken due to Lemmy upgrades. I could look at reviving that code for this purpose perhaps as I tend to forget things :D
I really liked the what games are you playing? On Game Pass.
Argh! lemmy ate my comment.
Well, I was suggesting manually posting the weekly threads, instead of automating them via bot. Personally, I find it more engaging when the poster shares something themselves too. For instance, rather than just having an automated post “Share your recommendations”, it feels better when poster share their own recommendation first, and then ask for recommendations in return. Same for other weekly threads.
Just my $0.02
Yeah maybe you’re right. Would be nice if anyone can open the thread as if I have to do it, it will probably not happen weekly :)
A bot would be fantastic. I’d probably do something like:
“Weekly Community Gamepass Recommendations” What games would you recommend the community try out?
Something like that. You can probably come up with something better.
Will have a look over the weekend!
