Nice the steamdeck sub that I mod will be happy to hear this.

I wouldn't brag about that if I were you.

That sub is mostly pictures of "jUsT bOuGhT a StEaM DeCk", sob bait, random steam sales, and rarely ever anything useful related to the Deck itself.

Every now and then I go to check top posts from the past month to see if anyone has posted anything significant, like the DeckMate or EmuDeck or actual useful stuff. Inevitably, it's all standard reddit garbage.

That type of community may not be your cup of tea or what you are looking for but that doesn't mean GP shouldn't be proud of building it.

The world is plenty big enough for all types of communities. Its okay for people to be proud of the things they lead, even if they aren't things that are interesting to you or me.

I agree, building a community is very difficult, I've built a few myself.

But sometimes something merely existing can prevent other things from flourishing, e.g. due to the mechanism of Schelling points:

I don't have a problem with communities existing that I don't care for, but it's furstrating when those low effort communities squat on the most relevant search terms/domains/subreddits/etc

Thanks for your work as a mod. It's a decent sub.

Which one is it?

Judging by their username, probably r/steamdeck
