is there a community like r/consolerepairs in the federverse?

3 years ago by DarthBueller to c/retrogaming

I am looking for a console repair community. I didn't see one when I searched "all" communities on lemmy.world. But I'm new here and didn't want to reduplicate a community that already exists perhaps under a different name?

I don't think so as of yet but would love to have one

I created one though I don't have anything to add to it at the moment. Hopefully I did it right, I don't know what I'm doing. https://lemmy.world/c/consolerepair

While the fediverse is young you may be better off to stick to a more umbrella category like hardware, not only because you'll get more eyeballs, but also to pick up the engagement there. Once the fediverse grows a bit more, it will become necessary to have more specialised communities. There may be a risk of them becoming dilapidated ghost towns if they are created too soon, rather than growing organically.

There isn't one as far as I know. But for what it's worth there is a Discord.
