lol that’s YOU?!? !forgottenweapons showed up randomly in my feed one day, and I subscribed because it’s unique and interesting! Awesome!

Glad to hear it! And yes that is me. You’re making me feel like Lemmy’s second biggest celebrity, behind the android community moderator Margot Robbie. If you enjoy the posts don’t forget to check out the Forgotten Weapons YouTube channel & website.
The community is sort of a place for fans of the show to post stuff that other fans would enjoy, but it’s got a whole bunch of members who actually have found out about Forgotten Weapons through the Lemmy community first. I’m really glad to see people who find out about Forgotten Weapons from the community. It makes me feel like I’m giving back to Ian McCollum for everything I’ve learned from his show.

That takes a small amount of effort. Can you just create my niche communities for me?
FireTower@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Sure. But only if your niche community is centered around a YouTube channel run by a man with a three musketeers looking mustache and ponytail who travels the globe to disassemble military prototypes.

That sounds pretty fun. Does he do UFOs too?
FireTower@lemmy.world 1 year ago
No but I think we have one for UFOs

You’ve got a pretty cool community. I enjoy every one of your posts.

Thanks! User engagement is what keeps me going. Otherwise it feels like I’m just talking into a void.
