(Meta) What shall we do here on /c/playstation?

Hey everyone,

This community has been up for 3 weeks, and it's a small and cozy place. I personally think it's fine if there isn't a lot of activity, these consoles are already "retro" after all. People can still write and if you're subscribed, you'll see it, so it's not like posts become invisible.

That said, would you prefer that we have some extra activity here to keep things lively? Such as weekly, bi-weekly or monthly discussions on some particular topic? Or something like a reading club, to check out a particular game? Or some other idea?

Next, should we have a megathread for collections and pickups? I personally think we should, as most communities/subs for specific older consoles tend to only have these kinds of posts, and I'm not a huge fan of that (maybe I'm just jealous).

Next next, should we have PS5-specific content here? I've not been deleting anything, but now that !ps5@lemmy.ml is operational (and a few others), I don't see why not keep this community for "everything else" besides PS5.

Finally, I could use a backup mod or a few. Nothing bad is happening here, so there's no work for the time being (unless you want to be very active in posting etc.). My intent is to keep the community friendly but also allow a bit of rowdiness, as people can be passionate or have a bad day, so I don't like being too hasty with bans. Just gotta keep it civil in general. Either way, everyone is 100% nice here, so that's just theoretical.

Let me know if you'd like to be a mod. At this time I can only take users of lemmy.world to avoid bugs and incompatibilities that stem from federation. We can expand again later as things get smoother.

Anything else, lmk.

Thanks.
