Remember kids. It only works if you stay here.
I've always valued the perspectives, reviews, opinions and recommendations of the members of r/patientgamers to help me find new gaming experiences.
Thanks for creating this community.

Over 90% of my Reddit access is through a 3rd party mobile app; the future for this is looking a bit bleak.
I’m testing the waters of Lemmy in the unlikely event that the Reddit admins and the majority of users notice that it's shooting itself in the foot with these changes to the API access policy.
It's nice to see this sub exist outside reddit. Usually I'm patient on playing any new games so I can wait for them to be runnable on Linux if not native (ie, via proton)
I remember a point where I owned every game that was payable on Linux, this was even a good while after steam launched for Linux. Now that's just not possible.
Patient Gamers was one of my favorites too - I might repost some of my reviews here to add some content
Please do! That would be great!
Love the patient gamers subreddit but considering this community is so large already, I think I might make this my new home regardless of what happens to the subreddit. I hope others decide the same, perhaps we can start getting some good recurring posts and organized content to kick start this place.
In the meantime I’m gonna try and put forth some nice conversations in the comments.
Hi, hello and howdy! Glad to have more options!
Welcome!
Hi! Thanks for this and great to see some promising participation and posts already and it feels like a new home
Nice idea to recreate the good communities that were nice on reddit, the most important thing is to have those subreddit equivalents, and people to participate and trying to makes those communities thriving.
Agreed 100%
It's a bit of a bummer reading the reddit threads where some people are complaining about reddit alternatives not having millions of users. It's sort of self explanatory (I thought) that nothing is a drop-in replacement for reddit right now because everyone is still just using reddit. You gotta start somewhere...
I'm here, Reddit has been going the wrong direction for a while in my opinion, all the external money usually ruins things. Hopefully this type of thing is a bit more resistant to that.
Well, I mean since all are different instances that aren't owned by the same person it's way harder to buy it up
Nice, glad to see this community here.
patientgamers is one of the best gaming subs on reddit, good to see it here as well. Thanks for creating it.
Welcome! I hope more ex-redditors will join here. Lemmygrad is for mostly far-left.
Like, anarcho-socialist far left, or "making excuses for nominally 'communist' dictatorships" tankie far left?
Regardless, beehaw seems cool so far also. I'm feeling hopeful overall!
Marxist-Leninist mostly, that instance is designed for them.
I'm not sure if I'm patient or just slow. The mould seems to fit though.
Thank you for making this! :) It was one of my favourite places to read discussions about games I'd not got round to playing or waiting to play. :)
Patient Gamers
A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
