Title.

I feel post-game threads make more sense to be bot-automated, due to the box score labor. But perhaps game threads less so.

I feel game threads in general aren’t suited to Lemmy. I am considering hosting live game chats on Discord or Quebic (a “Signal-meets-Discord”) for Lemmy NBA. I believe there is also already a Lemmy NBA Discord if I’m not mistaken.

I think the bot should do post game threads, for the most part, but if there’s a game thread, it should be consolidated to “Game Thread for X Day” that includes all games that day.

This would probably produce the best results for activity entering the season.

    I think I agree with your thoughts here.

    Also … Anybody know where this Lemmy NBA discord is?

      I might have lied, I thought I was in it. But I can’t see it in my Discords. I will make chats later this week.

        I had thought someone created one, but not sure if anyone used it for anything. I generally think it makes sense to keep most things on Lemmy to not splinter the community, but also agree that live game discussion isn’t the best on forum based chats. It’s okay but obviously way different from watching a twitch stream chat.
