There's an Aztec city building game called Tlatoani. It's in early access, but has enough meat on the bone that it's one of my goto games.

Out of curiosity I checked Steam DB for active player numbers. I have discovered at any given point I am 10% to 25% of the given player base BY MYSELF. I am 1 of 4 people playing this game right now in the world. With the prevalence of the internet I always assume whatever weird bullshit you're into there's at least a thousand people talking about it; making memes outsiders could never comprehend. It's actually novel to fly under the radar for once.

What do you do that doesn't have a community associated with it?

I am super into jazz and the evolution of the form going back to it's genesis in New Orleans.

I'm particularly interested in the Free Jazz movement that is thought to have originated with Ornette Coleman in the 50's but the truth is Lenny Tristano and crew were pioneering it in the 40's. Also post-bop and jazz/rock fusion mostly from 50-80s. I'm a lover of Japanese Jazz as well because it has a particularly unique cultural identity - both highly creative and wild, yet highly composed and tight.

I carried the Jazz community on Lemmy for a year or so until I gave up and deleted my posts. We're different people.

I also detest vocal jazz. It is an abomination. Also Miles Davis is a clown - a brilliant bandleader but a piece of shit human and a slightly-better-than-middling trumpeter.
