You are most welcome π
That's a great point! Also I'm very happy to hear we were your entry into the "threadiverse". We'll look into some options.
We're aware of the pact and will cross that bridge when (or if) it ever really happens. We're certainly no fans of Meta (or Reddit,or Twitter). So far it seems more likely to affect Mastodon than Lemmy/Kbin.
I installed some community made themes (like darkspace) just to play around and give users some options, but yeeeah... none of them are very good. Thankfully the admin team knows a bit of CSS from their redditing days so a theme improvement is definitely on the to do list.
If anyone wants to have a go at making one, be my guest, I'd be happy to add it to the options.
You're most welcome!
True, but following the instance directly can be a bit of a firehose of information since you get ALL posts and comments. We wanted to have a place to alert for scheduled maintenance, events, and stuff like that.
The world just isn't ready for us yet.
Not a bad idea for the future!
Thanks for the heads up, StarTrek.website has enabled CAPTCHA and purged the bots from our database.
We're aware thanks, something went wrong in the latest update, it'll be fixed soon.
Edit: fixed now
Yes it was, BUT OUR TIME IS FINALLY NEAR πΆπΈ
The "user data" (comments, posts, votes, etc) that would be available to a hypothetical instance owned my Meta is already public for anyone, so not much we have control over there. "Defederating" essentially just means "blanket banning" a bunch of users at once.
