Geek on X: build this knot
Geek culture on X covers science fiction, comics, tabletop games, retro computing, cosplay and more. It is a friendly, opinionated crowd, and the best conversations are in replies, so they stay visible in this knot.
The recipe is a broad mix. Narrow it by swapping the tags for your own interests (a game, a series, a hobby) and add the creators you follow as members.

Who to add as members
Game designers, sci-fi writers, comic artists, hobby YouTubers and the friends you game with. We don't list anyone by name: pick the people you already read, so the knot reflects your corner of the topic.
Once you add members, the builder makes three more feeds: everything they post, their posts on this topic, and replies sent to them.
Tips for this knot
- Swap
- Images filter for miniatures, cosplay and art.
- Plan a weekly game-night chat with the hashtag planner.
Setting up the X List
- Open Lists from your profile menu and create a list called Geek Corner.
- Keep it public if you want others to follow it, or make it private for your own reading.
- Add members from the list editor or from each profile's menu.
- Pin it so it shows up as a tab on Home.
