    I will say - I hope the silkposting doesn’t go crazy here like in the Subreddit. I’ve been passively reading there every now and then, and the ratio is way off. There’s at least 99 low-effort low-quality Silkposts for anything actually relating to the game.

      It’s advertised only on r/Silksong though. You can expect 90% of people who came from Reddit are part of r/Silksong, and they probably are silkposters. I think you can try !hollowknight@lemmy.world. It’s kind of like r/HollowKnight where both games are talked about and just a normal community.

        Even so, I’d rather not see the same four tired memes being endlessly regurgitated, drowning out everything else. Mind you, I’m not saying there should be absolutely no shitposts. But is the hundredth “haha look guys this tweet says Team Cherry!” really so funny that it should displace everything else?

        Maybe this place could be better than r/silksong currently is. There’s also always the option of opening a separate Silkposting community, just like so many gaming communities have done before when faced with similar issues.

          Well, be the change you want to see in the world. Post some art, lore discussion, gameplay tips, etc. Passively reading posts and then make a new community is pretty ineffective and I gotta be honest, a waste of time, when you can upfront spend the next 10 minutes to come up an idea to post here.

            I see you have one post that I even commented on. That’s great! You can post more! Doesn’t always need as many text as that one.

              How many posts and how many images do I have to submit before you consider my opinion on the community valid?

      ima be honest i just have a big baclog of decent post im a bit to anxious to post on the main sub for some reason, il mainly put them there

      also the reason why there are allot of low effort ones is because of e1331 deleting there account and a ton of people using it as an opportunity to “rise to power”

        Hm. I guess if posts like this one start making up a majority of this community, I’ll create a rival community without them.

        The low effort Silkposts in the subreddit have been going on for many months. For every post discussing the game, there’s dozens of “funny Team Cherry Twitter” posts.
