Hello everyone,

I am pleased to introduce gmetimeline.org.
The purpose of this website is to provide a perspective of the GME saga in the form of a chronological overview of factual events, for GME shareholders and anyone else that might be interested.

As everyone here would understand, the GME saga is ever-changing and incomplete. As this story continues to unfold, I believe that it is important to have a tool such as this that attempts to unify all of the various sources of information (e.g. news reports, social media discussions, media publications, etc.) into a perspective that is easy to navigate and make sense of.

Somebody else in the past has already created gmetimeline.com, which itself is a great resource except for the fact that it has not been updated since the end of 2021. I believe in the value of having such a resource so in a sense I am picking up where they left off.

This website is still in the early stages and still requires a lot of work. It is currently missing many events relevant to the saga that should probably be included. It does not currently have all of the functionality that I believe it should have, such as the ability to filter events by their properties (e.g. type, significance, tags), as well as additional functionality such as a representation of GME share ownership distribution such as can be found in the chart at the bottom of the page at https://www.drsgme.org/why-gme, or in the past at computershared.net. Also, the website is currently mostly intended for full-size PC screens and not optimized for mobile, so that is something that will require additional work as well.

Also, I wanted to be able to have a community area to discuss events that are now historical, but, for reasons I discuss in this post, I believe that the most appropriate area for such discussions is here on this Lemmy instance.

I will be using this community to create threads to serve as supplementary discussions specifically for historic events.

So, please feel free to use this community as a place to discuss any historic events of the GME saga that might deserve further attention or discussion. Please also feel free to use this community to specifically discuss the gmetimeline.org website, such as suggestions for content or anything like that.
