Is there a list of all spaces?

I've never woken up the next morning regretting greasy food

+1 for Bookstack. Very simple and easy to learn.

I’ve never really liked YA-coded media, and SFA is an exception in that I find it enjoyable.

I'm certainly with you on this!

Oh I see thank you for the explanation. I missed that the university network was called a VPN.

I'm pretty sure "Block" is derived from "Blockchain"

teen drama

Can you expand what you mean by this? I have heard this criticism before but nobody has been able to provide me an example from the show of what they mean.

Just so we're on the same page, I haven't seen a single example of drama that I would consider functionally different in form or quantity than any other Star Trek show. There is drama yes, and there are also teenagers. But in my opinion every "teenager" on SFA is far less "dramatic" than (for example) Wesley or Jake and I cannot recall anyone criticizing TNG or DS9 for being a "teen drama".

This may sound dumb, but wouldn't it appear to anyone listening between the client and VPN as though all traffic is coming from the VPN and not the website? Isn't that the point of a VPN?

You are. I had zero desire to watch it myself, put it on because I was bored, and now I'm literally counting the days until each new episode. Episode 4 in particular was everything I love about Star Trek.

I think 404 Media publishes on Ghost which uses activitypub.

"For a hot minute it was honestly great but eventually all that remained was tankies propaganda and depressing news. And probably a few non-political communities that sadly don’t really offset it for me."

I'll never understand why someone would go through the trouble of starting an instance and then tolerate nonsense on the instance that they (again) literally own.

The entire point of the fediverse is decentralizing power. So why are you making it worse for yourself abiding by someone else's rules? Did it occur to him that maybe his users don't want tankies and depressing news either?

I get that keeping the engines running is thankless work a lot of the time but damn, don't make it harder on yourself because someone else (who is not you) wants to use your thing that you pay for and maintain to force their propaganda onto your users.

I know this isn't wallstreetbets but I can't help but wonder if this is a more secure investment than the usual S&P500.

Personally I think this is a good response. I hope they stay true to it in the future.
