Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

That’s a total bummer but I’m not moving my whole identity for one single community. If everyone did this, Fedi would be an ever lonelier place.
Bye 👋
I'm legitimately curious: what is the appeal of this community to a remote user?
@ValueSubtracted @deegeese you're joking, right?
I only discovered this place after I was on fedi for 3+ years. It's incredible and amazing to be able to participate remotely. I honestly can't fathom why you WOULDN'T want that. But hey if they want to close it then bye I guess.
From what I can see, you've only participated in this community once, nine months ago.
The other communities (StarTrek, Daystrom, Risa, etc.) are all staying open and federated.
@ValueSubtracted oh I didn't realize there were requirements for "participation" my bad
It was just a point of clarification in case you misunderstood.
@ValueSubtracted oh I completely understand now that liking, boosting, or privately enjoying posts is not an acceptable level of engagement in an online community where "participation" is required. Thanks 🖖💫

Never trust an instance with a closed governance process

@ValueSubtracted
Except jorts which transcends governance entirely
@jonny @starkraving666 @ValueSubtracted wait, we have governance?
I thought the owner of this instance just set it up in some substance-induced euphoria and then forgot it existed
