Chat is a very bad flow for this, because chat is a stream, not a garden. It's made for quick feedback. What you want is closer to a wiki, but I understand you

Chat is a very bad flow for this, because chat is a stream, not a garden. It's made for quick feedback. What you want is closer to a wiki, but I understand you need to share it with other people and discuss about it.
I don't know of any software that does that, but the good thing is that maybe you don't need a new platform. Creating new platforms just splits the communities and is against the Unix philosophy we hold dear. Maybe a good first step is to be in the Fediverse, and create an actor per entry. That actor would contain all facts, potentially linking other entries. Anyone could @ movies, so you'd see the discussion about them. You can create lists, like "watched/listened/played/read" and add actors to those lists. Those actors don't post anything, they're just a "rallying point" for conversation. They're more encompassing than hashtags.
Sounds like a weekend project for someone adventurous enough
- bamfly 3y agoYeah, I've considered slapping something together in Django or what have you—libraries exist to make a lot of this not that hard—but... kids. And the new Zelda, for that matter :-)
- epiccoleman 3y agoThe new Zelda has utterly destroyed my progress on side projects and also playing guitar. That's ok though, this happens to me every now and then - a game will come out that is so good / compelling that I just need to drop everything else and jam all my free time into it. It's almost like something in my psychology is saying "play the shit out of this so that we can get over the obsession and get back to other pursuits quickly." I don't game all that much these days, so when something really good comes along, I just let myself go nuts on it. I've realized I seem to work in cycles, so after my Zelda obsession dies off, I'm sure I'll get back to other stuff.
- abnercoimbre 3y agoOne could argue it's important to play it if virtually all of your friends are playing it too (as is my case.) "Cultural moments" and what have you: it won't reach OOT levels, but boy is it close!
