StarTrek.website (@TrekSite@tenforward.social)
Special thank you to their admin Guinan for allowing us to set up. TenForward.social has been operational since 2017, so they should prove a reliable home.
Awesome to see!!
Hurrah!
@Admin Heh, seems random when we can follow the sub from Mastodon directly! I mean, that's how I've been doing it.
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.
Yea, following the site in Mastodon is suboptimal. I'm kind of waiting to see how all this stuff shakes out. I don't like creating accounts everywhere, so I'm looking at kbin, lemmy, or just staying on mastodon. Depends on where the software goes.
"We wanted to have a place to alert for scheduled maintenance, events, and stuff like that."
Very cool. I have it bookmarked. I don't have a Mastodon account, yet. I've had a Twitter account for years, but I very, very rarely logged on to it. I tend to be verbose (I'm working on it), rather than pithy, a habit that didn't mesh with Twitter.
Maybe they simply don't like us
