Maybe?
I haven't joined any of these, but maybe they're good?

Mastodon instance. More game-player focused, but it's well moderated. Gamedev Place

A Hubzilla instance tied to the FreeGameDev Forum. Focused on open-source game making. - intfiction.org
Interactive Fiction-focused forum. - One Hour Game Jam
