How would everybody feel about game threads? We’re in the NBA and NHL finals, so there’s some good discussion to be had. The Reddit game threads are all essentially Twitch chat at this point, so I’m hoping that this smaller community will be better.
I might try running one for an NBA finals game that I’m home for. Any thoughts?
definitely feel free to manually make one and see how it goes; i think it’d work fine on here
I’ve talked to the admins about coding a game thread bot. I’m currently very busy so i cant do it but I’d be very excited if someone else did it
I don’t have the skills to make a bot. I was just going to try manually doing a few.
I’ve got at least some experience writing reddit bots, I can give it a shot if there’s interest (or at least get one set up)
Is there any documentation about creating one? I can probably code one with some guidance
I don’t know if this is still used, but here’s a reddit example that includes source code:

Is this idea different from a pinned discussion thread that is live during the game? I am not too familiar with how it is done on reddit or twitch.
Different subreddits handle it differently, but, yes, a discussion thread during games. I have no idea if there’s a Twitch equivalent, I was just using chaotic, fast-moving, useless Twitch chat as an analogy for what the Reddit discussion threads have turned into.
I created !usmlr@lemmy.ml and have been posting match threads. Would love some company!
NFL game threads and Fantasy Football updates are the two things i really want to be able to have here, I’d love to get those
