1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.
2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
[link text](/c/community@instance.com)
*This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't*
You should also include either:
!community@instance.com
or instance.com/c/community
FAQ:
*Q: Why do I get a 404?*
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
*Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?*
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Interesting idea, I'm surprised it's not hosted on https://ttrpg.network/
Zip is my home instance so that's why I created it there, but that's a great point...I'm still getting the hang of the Fediverse.
You can always create another account on ttrpg and use it only to mod that community
I like the idea of TTRPG AARs. But honestly, reading about one person's *solo* games doesn't sound that fun to me. But more power to ya. Hopefully you get something out of sharing these stories.
Totally fair point! I think that's why accompanying the reports with the ability to listen in while I actually play through a session would improve the "spectator" experience. But this is definitely a passion project and not something I anticipate building a large audience for. Thanks for stopping by! :)
