Welcome everyone!
First of all, what is a ' Yarning Circle '? Well it's a place to have a yarn, a conversation, in a circle where everyone can speak equally. In this case we're here to discuss the state of the instance and it's future. Something I hope to host monthly going forward. Oh and thanks to slrpnk.net for letting me steal their formatting of community posts.

.ml de-fed?
๐งโ๐ป What's Up? ๐งโ๐ป
Prior to switching over to PieFed from Lemmy, Quokk.au was de-federated from the 'triad', as it stands with the move we are now re-federated with lemmy.ml. In the near future I would like to hold a vote to decide if you would like to continue to remain as such or move towards de-federating them. Please let me know your thoughts.
- I've started working on a few small customisations to PieFed. Mostly centered around the web interface, changing layout.
- New (WIP) themes such as a replication of old.reddit and a PHPBB inspired theme.

Please let me know how you're finding your experience so far with Quokk.au, and if there is anything I can to do help improve it for you.
Considering that dbzer0 has changed to tolerate genocide denial and the admins openly praise Hexbear, have openly said despite a 2/3s vote against the matter that they intend to re-federate with Lemmygrad in the future, and say that Critical Support(tm) for China doesn't make one a tankie, I don't really know that you're the best source for what there is to gain or not gain from federation with tankie instances.
