You specifically are not wanted because our sensors detected you were carrying a briefcase labeled “bribe money” that was actually full of borg nanites.

There are definitely some weird people who want the clout of owning a “popular” instance, but mark my words they will flame out soon enough if popularity is the root of their desire. Instance management is a lot of tedious work and if you don’t have a passion for facilitating conversation and connecting people you’re not going to last. This isn’t Reddit where a powermod can just sit there and do the bare minimum for free.

Instance admin here, this is backwards. Instance costs increase with the number of users because we don’t sell ads. The only people we want signing up for accounts on our instance are people who are excited to be there, and intend to bring their singular wit and conversational A-game.

Please be aware that comment violates our instance rules, we are assuming it is some kind of misguided joke. Please try to be more respectful in the future.

I…don’t know that there’s much of any real point to this post. I don’t know a lot of people who watch Trek and wanted to share

Literally the point of this entire instance :)

I added y’all to the main sidebar

It appears that perhaps a transporter accident has duplicated this post…

Might as well had been a million, I don’t think it could have gone better! ❤️

I have no idea where you’re seeing a million, I’m seeing 1,300. But that’s still very high for the fediverse! And it’s definitely the highest we’ve ever had in one of our local communities.

Not to the American East Coast😅(I added a sticky comment clarifying)

First of all I agree, but also on that note- we have actually been in touch with the writer for that episode (Eric Anthony Glover) about a possible AMA in the future as well. But first we want to see how this one goes!

To be clear, this is for 4pm EST

This is the thread for questions!

Sexism violates our instance principles, I know you’re a regular here so please edit your comment (being Australian is not a excuse here).

Consider this a friendly reminder to yourself and all users here that if you see a user behaving in a way you just plain don’t like, (even if it’s on another instance) don’t hesitate to report it to us. The admin team is extremely aggressive with blocks and bans. We want this instance to be a quiet, thoughtful, and fun entry point to the Fediverse. And we want our users to be happy.

That said I understand the need for a break! I’ll miss your presence and as ValueSubtracted said we’ll keep the antimatter inducers uh, er- inducing.

Darn I wish that movie got a sequel

The timing definitely could have been better. But maybe now more people have seen it?
