Overall, static games with carefully crafted experiences are better than any roguelike.

I've heard about this one a few times now. What are the difference between this and Vampire Survivors? What does one do better than the other?

This one is a bit of a rarity! Youtube demonitzed this video for mentioning Nazis and Stalin. Because, according to Youtube, history never happened.

The video was reuploaded with censored names, but I hate that version. It actively shows how Youtube's regulations hinder valuable and educational content. Luckily, I still had the original in a playlist, which allows me to make this hidden video visible again.

So enjoy this look at Shostakovich and his interesting musical protest to a regime which very much wanted him to follow the rules. It's an interesting one!

A very specific but interesting look at an outside perspective. I think the video presents itself a bit more scientific than it is, but it is definitely entertaining and unique.

This one is a treat! Animation is rarely tackled this in-depth, yet it is also completely understandable. Worth a watch!

Sittingonclouds is a good one! It has loads! There's also squid-board, which has even more, but registrations aren't always open.

I watched the show after this retrospective. It's pretty good! However, the strongest episodes are definitely the ones that actually follow up on the premise. The ones where Earl is working on his list. The other episodes are... Fine. Nothing more.

It's a reference to Moby Dick. It's something you really want, but seems unattainable.

An oldie, but a goodie!

I'm facing similar problems. What helped me settle here, though, were the right tools. The most helpful being:

The Lemmy Explorer, which helps you find forums across all Lemmy instances: https://lemmyverse.net/

Lemmy Link, which make it easier to show forums on the lemmy instance you are using: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/lemmy-link/

And, as a bit of a wild card, I made an RSS feed. If you don't know what it is, it basically let's you subscribe to websites so that any articles or threads show up in one big personal newspaper. That way, I can get both the few Lemmy topics that are here and supplant the rest with "loose" websites like blogs or news sites.

Lemmy is fully compatible with RSS as are many other sites. If a site isn't, it's fairly easy to make it compatible with a generator. After that, it's just a matter of gathering the links you want.

I'd recommend checking out Feedly and just tinkering to see if it's something you'd enjoy. It's not a full replacement, but it does allow you to make things more personal.

Honestly I disagree with some comments here. I wouldn't make a separate community. Just do it here. The community is small as-is, no need to splinter it down any further.

Also, I don't think games would just have to be cheap, they'd also have to be short. That makes the barrier of entry a bit lower.
