I've never seen an ad-based tier on a Mastodon instance and they do just fine 🤷‍♂️

I opened this thread to type out this exact comment but somehow you typed up the exact same thing before me?

You know one Christmas I would like the family to just quietly enjoy a good Christian Star Trek meme without someone mentioning Doctor Who!

Ok sorry, where I'm from saying you are "truly tired" of something implies you think it's bad.

Actual Budget is software. It can be run on a home server if desired.

"Smaller more personal stakes" doesn't mean something will be good, either!

Yeah I learned this playing Kerbal! It actually requires more energy to send something into the Sun than out of the solar system entirely.

This makes me glad that at least he was cast as a central character in a LD episode.

 

Asking for a friend

 

"Sure, The Borg have been a bit of a problem. Their tendency toward mass assimilation and the stripping of individuality and personal freedom doesn’t exactly jibe with our idea of what makes a great leader. But let’s be honest. Kathryn Janeway hasn’t been perfect."

I quit as the top mod of /r/StarTrek in 2021 in protest against Reddit's platforming of vaccine disinformation subreddits. Then in 2023 during the API protest, myself and several of the remaining mods (including mods from /r/Risa and /r/DaystromInstitute) started StarTrek.website.

The consensus I've seen on Lemmy has been largely "we don't need to spread the word about our open platforms because Reddit will do something stupid again and there will be another protest and Lemmy will be promoted there". So I hope we can take this as a lesson that we can't rely on platforms being shitty in order to switch society over to open standards. We need to do our best to make Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed good as well as known.
