PokeClicker is a very active game. I prefer idling. I unabashedly use scripts to change it to be more idle and I'm having a good time.

Hmm, this feels like the inverse of my own opinion. I don't like clicking that much but am totally fine with the standard "click a bit for your first producers" mechanic. Curious why you dislike it.

That's okay about the old comment, I can still see it so here it is:

Pure curiosity—if I hit Report, do you receive the report or does my instance admin receive the report? I reported the post before I saw your comment.

We also have chat

Huh? I'm posting from Mbin, and it looks like incremental_social is an Mbin instance too. Do you mean your Matrix space?

And no problem replying, I appreciate it! Kind of jealous that your weekly posts get engagement. I'm basically the only person propping up @[email protected] and people didn't reply, and I've fallen off on posting the weekly threads since. But I suppose incremental games are less niche than otome games, so it makes sense.

Kopi knows more about the techs than I do, I'm just here to be a pretty face :)

At the beginning it was just the three of us essentially talking to each other. It's growing very slowly, but that's good because exponential growth can be the death of communities.

She probably does mean the Matrix space. incremental.social has a slightly different interface compared to other Mbin instances, with the Matrix space being linked to as "Chat" in the navbar, there being a "Code" button which links to the site's Forgejo instance, and the link to the list of magazines being listed under an icon on the right side of the navbar not present in other Mbin instances.

As for the engagement part, it may have something to do with the fact that the people organizing this place have/had ties to the incremental games community back on Reddit. I know I wouldn't have joined if that weren't the case.

Well, there was a post by thepaperpilot about the instance made on [email protected] half a year ago. Not much has changed about the instance that would be relevant to people from other instances since then, so I'm hesitant to make another promotion post for the instance. On the other hand, the community you mentioned is not the one thepaperpilot posted to around half a year ago (and one where promoting communities you belong to is more appropriate)...

I'll think about it some more.

The Fediverse community is definitely about the Fediverse in general. I think it won't come off spammy at all, I never even saw that post because I am not following [email protected]. I'd definitely think about it!

Okay, posted it! I'm kinda nervous about it though - it's been a while since I posted outside of this instance.
