Would anyone be interested in participating in a sort of retro gaming "book club" style group? Basically, picking a console era, voting on a game, then playing through it together and discussing it? (Emulation is fine, we don't all have real hardware)

It seems like a fun idea. I want to call it "The Retro Retreat."

Wide open to ideas to bring it from conception to reality.

Retro Game Club: ASSEMBLE!
The first thing to figure out is where to chat while we get set up and organized.
Let's make this a group decision, OK? Cast your vote:

@killyourfm @Jojonintendo @thanius @nausahaver @lyonsinbeta @baltmatrix @TeamLinux01 @chris @Btph @gsquirrel @CleanDesign @tylnesh @jsstaedtler for more "live" discussions, definitely matrix, signal is too much of a pain on the desktop (it works when it wants to, plus needs to be signed up for on a mobile app on ios or android with a phone number) and mastodon doesn't do well for threading group conversations

@raptor85 I'm definitely aligned with this. Matrix tended to be unreliable during my time at Mozilla, but I think it IS the best option, and I'm sure things have been improved.

@killyourfm @raptor85 It has improved. I haven't had stuck notifications for a while now. *knocks on wood*.

@dannycolin @raptor85 HAHA that is exactly the type of behavior I was referring to. Fantastic!
