MODERATORS
 

This place has roughly 3,000 people and was intended to be an entire replacement for DaystromInstitute and StarTrek as they were going dark indefinitely. Well, within 4 days the moderators have walked back those statements and opened both subreddits up. I see no incentive for people to come to this website now and while a few may come here in the future, most people will go to r/startrek with 600,000 people.

More people probably will stay on Reddit, but I like startrek.website so much I joined the patreon which I've never done for anything before.

Lemmy is new and a bit confusing to start with but I really like it. It aligns with my morals and techie side much more than Reddit ever could.

I checked r/startrek last night at was a bit shocked at the hate the mods were recieving for doing what I consider to be morally correct. To each their own I suppose!

The people still using reddit are the ones that don't gaf about morals. It's better that they stay there.

@astroturds @samus12345 not necessarily. Some people may be stuck because they don’t have software for anything else.

@samus12345 hold up, are you using something else? I’m on mastodon.

@samus12345 holy crap, and I can still answer this?

[–] samus12345 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Yup, all part of the Fediverse! Cool, huh?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

@samus12345 extremely. Is there a client I can use to partake in this insane level of fun?

[–] Soupbreaker 2 points 1 year ago

I've been using an app on Android called Jerboa. Really happy with it so far.

[–] samus12345 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I signed up with lemmy.world via the website. I don't know a lot more about how it works!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lemmy, Mastodon, and most all of the Fediverse use a protocol called ActivityPub, and this is why they are interoperable. It's a really cool technology!

[–] CircuitGuy 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So tagging my Mastodon handle did not work. Is @[email protected] reading these messages on Mastodon? I know the Fediverse is related, but I didn't think you could talk between apps. How do I tag users here?

[–] samus12345 2 points 1 year ago

Something to ask in a forum dedicated to Fediverse help! I'm still a noob myself.

[–] CircuitGuy 1 points 1 year ago

I am confused by this. You mean I can tag myself on Mastodon, like this @[email protected], and that account will see it?
