An effort to revive this community (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hello deck-ers?!

I'm shaytan. After some time away from the internet, and now leaving behind reddit, I'm trying to revive this community as I very recently got a steamdeck, but I've been passionate about linux, linux gaming, and hardware for a while.

My plans for this place are to keep it aligned with piracy and steamdeck, but also take a lot more time into helping general support questions, and sharing resources and content related to the steamdeck and handheld gaming.

I'll try to prepare some posts for this place, and if possible have a good wiki soon!

Any help is welcome!

Roadmap
  • 1st -> ~~Mild overhaul of rules and look by the 2nd of February~~
  • 2nd -> ~~General opening post for a proper re-start, 5th of February~~
  • 3rd -> Some pre-prepared posts/small guides dedicated to new users starting the 6th at a consistency of 1 a week at minimum.
  • 4rd-> A proper wiki for all things related to the steamdeck by the end of February at worst
  • 5th -> Some more hardware specific and more technical guides by march

As a disclaimer, I want this place to remain piracy oriented, but also more valuable for everyday use, so ideally this place should have more general deck content between piracy posts

I am down to help with the wiki. I'm a systems engineer and I can probably automate most of the things that you write guides for, and probably already have some stuff put together even.

I don't really have any credentials to show without defeating my privacy, but here are some links that maybe show I'm not messing around ๐Ÿ˜… I'm currently building some social profiles to get ready for a few games I'm developing and planning to make open source or source-available, so that's why all these accounts are fairly newish.

Mainly giving these to show that I'm not lazy when it comes to documentation.

Hello! I appreciate your desire to help in here! I was planning on using the Wiki tool from this instance, but I believe there's no way of making edits on it unless you have an account on lemmy.dbzer0.com

If you want, we can have a chat on DMs
