[Meta] Boosting the community? (thebrainbin.org)

Not Mastodon's boosting. 😬

Communities stay healthy as there's interaction, and as I remembered this community exists (thank Reddit's RSS) was checking and the last post was mine back in late 2023.

I'll keep an eye for Vita news to share here, but could something else be done to try to give traction to the community? Maybe link it elsewhere, call others to post here, etc.?

Also, if that's not viable, given the near complete compatibility to the PSP's functions, maybe it could be expanded to something like "Sony handhelds"? Maybe minus PocketStation and the discount-WiiU controller for the PS5. Or even including those, dunno how relevant they are or how much they'd stray the community.

About following stuff, might I suggest RSS? Been finding it specially useful for following updates from pages whose UX is miserable, or I don't have an account, or thanks to my reader's in-built macros, if I need to open stuff en masse (context, le me has some 4k feeds).

And Reddit's one, at least through Old Reddit, that has RSS. Dunno where else nowadays one might find news from. Maybe from Rinnegatamante's socials? Though dunno where he is nowadays. Also not familiar with any blogs that may be around (but blogs usually have RSS so something to keep an eye for). Also maybe following tags on Twitter (they still allow it?)/Nitter (if possible), Mastodon and Bluesky (dunno how to do it there accountless).
