@lavender @pterodactyl: I’m already following a few gaming accounts, retro or otherwise and retrocomputing accounts on Mastodon and I’m still moderating the RGN Discord (not the biggest fan of Discord as a platform, but it’s there), so I’m not short of places to discuss retro gaming.
We have raised the possibility of setting up shop on the Fediverse or even on an Invision discussion board; I think a fair few retrogamers remember when the latter was the main way to discuss games online.

A fair bit from a theoretical perspective, actually. I’ve got a copy of Fundamentals of Motor Vehicle Technology on my shelf and I figure 50 years ago, I’d have been one of those people taking apart and putting together a motorcycle engine during the summer instead of figuring out how computers worked.
