Welcome to the Pathfinder and Starfinder Lemmy Community.
As a response to Reddit's recent changes to it's API costs, I've decided to move towards using Lemmy as a link aggregation website. In doing so, I found that there was a lack of Pathfinder and Starfinder communities, so I decided to start one.
Right now this community runs on a t3.small instance on AWS because I had the terraform to spin that up ready to go. In the future I'll be looking to move it to my homelab and hosting it from there.
I have a lot of respect for Paizo as a company, so I strive to stay within their community site guidelines. Please let me know if you notice anything that would violate their terms so I can resolve it immediately.
I'm also not very accustomed to running online communities. If anyone has suggestions or wants to help out, please let me know.
FYI, I made a post to
[email protected]about this new instance: https://lemmy.world/post/10995. The previous community was never real active, but there's a few subscribers there who may be interested in what you're doing here. Looking forward to chatting about pathfinder together.Awesome, I appreciate it. I don't think running a community is my forte, so I'm hoping I can get some people in that are better at the social part than I am. I considered just finding or starting a community on one of the established boards, but I was afraid it might get lost in the rest and that a dedicated space was the right fit for it. Hopefully that pans out for the community.
@SenseiRat @PriorProject Hi! I'm just trying out posting/commenting from Mastodon. I tried signing up directly but could not get a confirmation email. Happy to help anyway I can.
Hi and welcome! I'm looking into some issues with signups and logins, I'm not sure if they're a backend issue (based on a couple of issues reported on Github), or something with the server. I'm hoping to get a chance to play around with it and do some troubleshooting after work today.
I'd definitely be interested in working with anyone who wanted to help out with moderating, advertising, or just posting more content.
@SenseiRat Thanks so much! I have seen a few other mentions of those issues elsewhere. I did try logging in to no avail. Once I get an account on your instance I'm happy to help with all of the above! Maybe In make a new one without an email? I can also help debug on my end if there's something that would be useful to try.
Hey @[email protected], I think I may have figured out the issue. Can you try logging in again? I know if you try to create a duplicate account, it will have the same issue, but if you need to recreate, I can probably get into the database and kill the user account because I still haven't figured out how to do user management in Lemmy yet.
