  • Thanks! Would this be helpful for cross-posting to that community? My goal is to have a post showing in these 2 communities, and when I update the original one in this instance, the update will automatically carry on to the community in the other instance.

    I tried cross-posting using a function in the Summit app, but the updates don’t carry on… Do you know how I could achieve this?






  • Thanks for the recommendation, but it clearly doesn’t match the entry criteria. This list is for people who abhor seeing ads and microtransactions of any kind.

    This game, which I’m sure is great, should be part of another category of games: those with bearable ads/IAPs. I’ve been thinking about compiling such list, but it’d be extremely tricky and time consuming to discern what’s fair from what’s annoying or predatory.



  • Hey, thank you for this great list!

    You’re welcome :)

    Do you think you could maybe add a small description for every game?

    Sorry, I won’t do that. I think it’s easy enough to click on the links and check all the info on the Store, with pictures and description. Furthermore, I did not play all these games as they’re user recommendations, so it’d be too much work for little benefit.






  • First of all, thanks for your observations and suggestions. I love to be precise with my posts and learning more about markdown formatting.

    Headers require a space after the number signs

    A question about this: does it change the way it actually looks? I’ll fix it, but I’d love to know if there’s a practical difference in using space vs no space?

    I think “Introduction” and “Entry Criteria” should both be headers as well

    You’re probably right, as general rules go, but the reason why headers in my list are formatted this way is because I wanted to draw attention to the actual list and genres, rather than to the introduction/criteria. As I’m expecting most users to browse this list when they wanna checkout some games.

    Each of your genre headers should get three number signs, since those are all headers that fall within the “THE LIST” section

    I’ve actually tried that recently, but didn’t like the way it looked. I think something was off with the spacing between genre headers and first line when using three hashtags. Might give it another try soon.


  • Yes, thanks. I removed the 100% in the title. That was to distinguish the games in this list from the “free-to-play” games, which are free to download but then have predatory monetization through microtransactions, or ads.

    Personally, I can see the difference between saying “free” and “FOSS” so I thought it should be alright. But thanks for the feedback!

    I might start listing real FOS games recommended by the users, but I’m not sure whether I should add a dedicated section within this list, or build a new list from scratch for FOS games alone.






  • Hi everyone!

    I’m moving my two lists of games from Reddit to Lemmy, as I’m planning to jump platform and totally abandon Reddit in the future. The reason is well, Lemmy is better, and Reddit’s admin have suspended or shadowbanned my account without reason, deleting all my contributions to the community (Android Gaming) there.

    Most notably my two lists of games which I’ve curated for 4 years: “100% free games” and “Favorite PAID games”.

    Lemmy’s still young and, unfortunately, there isn’t a relevant or active Android gaming community yet, so I’m uploading here hoping I’m not doing anything wrong!

    I’ll probably cross-post the two lists on android(at)lemmy.world too.

    I’m very new to Lemmy so ANY feedback is appreciated. Thank you!
