    When we went dark on reddit I found out it’s practically the only platform we were on. Tried to go to nerfhaven, but they weren’t accepting new accounts so that was pretty useless. Let’s see if we can get off the ground here

      Pretty much the same experience here, I joined a couple of nerf Facebook groups and even they were basically wastelands. Granted one of them was a page for a nearby local group so there’s probably organization and conversation outside of their Facebook page.

      I thought I’d try posting my little bow blaster over on Nerfhaven to stoke interest, but then I found out it’s not accepting new members. So yeah, it’s basically a necropolis, mighty but dead.

      Nerfhaven gets pretty overwhelmed by spam account signups, which is why the mod team turned off new sign-ups and preserve it mainly as an archive. Lemmy probably has more modern anti-spam measures, so might be a more sustainable long-term solution
