Seeing folks give season greetings to Linix gamers made me wonder if self promotion is allowed here?

I, as well as a few other Linux gamers, stream to our Owncasts, which have Federation connectivity, but wondering if we should be posting here when we go live on Owncast to spread the word. If that's ok?

To think of a few, Samsai, Hatnix, Hamishptb, and myself only stream to our own private Owncasts.

Again you can follow folks through federation, or get desktop notifications on go live, but I personally like the Firefox Owncast Extension.

Either way, Happy Holidays or even just a happy regular day to everyone!

As the mod: go for it. As long as it’s not over the top I’m cool with it. A vibrant community is good 👍

Not every time though: but like, now and then a reminder people do it and such is all good.

a community for it makes sense to me, gives a lot of flexibility for filtering to relevant categories, keywords and such, without fear of causing noise/clutter, and that still leaves the door open to cross posting to specific communities too where it makes sense
