Samsung Gear VR sublemmy

I recently got a Samsung Gear VR and noticed that even though there is a moderately sized subreddit for it, it doesn't have a lemmy presence, so I decided to fix that:

Gear VR

!gearvr@discuss.tchncs.de https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/gearvr

The community is for anything regarding Gear VR, be it asking questions, guides for making stuff work, maybe showing off a good deal you got, ...

Consider joining relevant larger communities first, there's probably some VR community out there that probably needs your content. I don't think Lemmy is big enough (yet) for such a niche Samsung Gear VR community, but go for it!!

You're probably not wrong, but the Gear VR ecosystem is quite specific and most "general" subs wouldn't apply to it, so I'm hoping to spread some knowledge about it this way (so that it isn't all guarded by spez).

I currently have no interest in this topic, but I love the growth of more niche subs on Lemmy! Wishing you all the best!

Rules

The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.

1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
