Cool! Let me know if you have questions. On reddit we had r/dwarffortress, we should maybe ask one of the gaming communities if there is interest. Earlier I found https://lemmy.zip which is a lemmy instance geared towards gaming.
Ok, I will ! You seem to know a lot about the game, why not make a lemmy community yourself ?
Haha! I don't think I can moderate and run such a community. Also my instance here for Lemmy is something I spun up for personal use given I like to self host stuff as a hobby, and I don't think it would work well as a home for a community.
However I saw someone made a new tool to explore the "lemmyverse" at https://lemmyverse.net and using it I found there is an existing community for dwarf fortress that seems a lot more seriously set up than mine would be: https://lemmy.ml/c/dwarffortress
I subscribed! Last time I searched there wasn't one but maybe I just had to use a tool like this lemmyverse site that collects data about all communities across instances.
That’s a very useful tool !
I have tought about self hosting a website/ my own lemmy instance but isn't it dangerous to host things avaliable on the internet from your home ?
There's a level of danger but it's possible to protect from it if you know what you are doing
