The leak comes as the devices are prepared for mass production, so these are coming soon.

    If I strictly apply rule 1, this should be removed. But at the same time, after talking with OP via PM, it is true that it is still kinda related to games.

    For now I’m gonna keep it, but an update to the rules is needed, to better define and explain them.

    Edit : After a night of sleep I have to admit I was mistaken here.

    Still, I’ll talk with the other mods about better defining the rules, I feel like it is needed.

      Video game company that also owns the biggest video game buying platform in the world makes a new video game controller to play video games with

        Yup, in retrospect my brain kinda betrayed me here.

        The update I’d like to see here is to explicitly allow gaming hardware related topic in rule 1, to avoid having an overworked mod go on a moderation spree.

          Maybe instead of updating the public rules could use a checklist system to help reduce the cognitive load of moderating: like checking if the url is a reputable source such as the verge, and check for keywords like “valve” for if it’s relevant to gaming.

      “Still kinda related”

      Please, Lord, let me never become a moderator, keep my reasoning intact.

        Moderating isn’t as easy as it seem from the outside, and sometimes you can make mistakes, especially when tired. 😅

          I know and don’t mind the jokes, you folks are doing a good job on communities that I follow. I started “teachers” and “education” subreddits a lifetime ago with a free-speech-absolutist mindset and quickly realized that they become a cesspool without someone grinding through reports 24/7.

      As a user this is content I would expect to see in this community and if the rules need clarification they should include posts like this.

      Reading the notes in https://lemmy.world/post/2536430 (linked in the sidebar),

      This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

      This post certainly relates to gaming, which to me means as currently worded fits rule #1.

      I’m a stickler for content appropriateness, but even I can see how a game company’s gaming console is related to gaming.
