Should there be a Matrix/Element server for we, the g*mers Poll Comrade 2020-12-21 (Mon) 05:20:07 No.3818

The site's good for general discussion of gaming stuff of course, but for those who play multiplayer there's no way to connect and team up with/1v1 fellow bunkerbros,
and the actual /leftypol/ Matrix server seems more for direct discussion about political theory (duh) and moderation.
I just wanna play tf2 with bros who don't think 'gasthejuice' is actually funny, you know.
Voot and discuss.

is there anything like nitter or invidious for strawpoll?
Do you have a breakdown of the ways in which strawpoll tracks user data?
I'd not heard anything about them scooming data so I used it, but if there's an alternative I'd like to know.

Actually it was in reference to how trivial it is to rig an anonymous online poll.

poll.disroot.org is a good alternative.

I'm actually interested in a matrix room for /games/. I don't play tf2 though mostly classic doom and hoi4 occasionally.

We could add it to the leftypol community on matrix.

Comrade 2020-12-21 (Mon) 05:25:03 No.6397

i'm interested also since i wanna play some games with people who i don't profusely hate for a change

Comrade 2020-12-21 (Mon) 05:25:03 No.6401

No because I'm guaranteed to get 200+ pings on every game and I want y'all niggas to suffer like me.

Plenty of turn-based games and even some real-time games function just fine at 200ms ping.

Let's see how many people here are actually interested in a matrix room for /games/. Here's a room I made (https://matrix.to/#/!YWrRUKLasccyNpfbue:matrix.org?via=matrix.org). I will ask mods to add this to /leftypol/'s matrix community if we get some people on board.
