/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

This is both the blessing and curse of truly decentralised and people run technology. The "business case" for it is extremely minimal, so people get bored and just start drifting away.

It's not malicious, it's just how people are.

Trying to find the few diamonds in the rough to keep everything going and put in the effort is like trying to win the lottery.

Even with my home lab services I use constantly, it's a chore to keep them updated and bug* free.

Oof. Yeah that's where I started. When it had problems a few months ago I found a second instance. Seems like it's still in it's growing pains.

Agreed. It's also a strength, as the Fediverse's independent operation model allows us to stay somewhat connected even if an instance goes down. I hope everything is all right over there in ernest's world, he was already burning out before and it looks like it might be happening again.
