Hey everyone,

We have two major FOSS/Open Source games communities:

!foss_gaming@lemmy.world
!OpenSourceGames@programming.dev

The first comm has a lot more subscribers (and more MAUs).

Seems like a perfect candidate for consolidation.

Don't know if you are a regular in this community, but such proposals are pretty common (and I will take the liberty of saying cm000, the main poster in the other comm, is even open to such approaches).

Even if we did have say 1 million MAUs, it still makes sense to have some sort of differentiation between communities (rules, regional focus, types of games etc.); currently there is none.
