A potentially stupid question so I apologise in advance. Am I right in thinking that this community is sitting on a Lemmy-based server, but it just has an unusual name rather than the typical xxxxx.lemmy/lemmy.xxxxx format?

I don't know if it's affecting other instances, but all images from startrek.website are denying referrals to image links from lemmy.sdf.org. In other words, all image posts show up as broken unless I open them in a new tab and refresh so the referrer becomes startrek.website. It's not affecting any of my other subbed instances, and when I open startrek.website it works fine, so I suppose something's breaking in the in-between?

Is there a list with instances you have blocked or are you currently federating with all other instances?

Edit: There is a list with all instances at the bottom of the site

Ad Astra!

Thank you for all your hard work, I am broke af right now but I will definitely contribute to a patreon once I get a steady income again!

This is a really cool moment to be involved in the future of social media, this community might be humble and small right now but it is part of the bleeding edge of the evolution of social media.

Was pretty skeptical about all this stuff, but it seems like y'all have succeeded in moving a good chunk of people from Reddit to this new place, which hopefully bodes well for the future.

Hopefully y'all will be able to keep moderation functioning well, especially considering that a lot of Folks'll stay split between here and the Reddit subs. Like the biggest reason (IMO, of course) that r/DaystromInstitute is/was one of the best subs out there was just how effective the moderators are/were.

How much does a Lemmy instance cost to host?

This is great, I subbed. I am trying to setup a server dedicated to motorcycling (r/motorcycles etc). Really like that we can setup specialty sites. Usenet 2.0

Hi! I have questions on how federation works on Lemmy. In Mastodon, if someone post something from an other instance, I can see it directly, if me or someone else from my own instance follow the poster. I thought it worked like that in Lemmy too, but I started following some communities in other instances, and I can't see all the new messages (for example, compare [email protected] and startrek.website/c/[email protected]; if you have the same problem as me, a lot of new messages will not appear, even if I subscribed a few days ago). Is it a problem from Lemmy, a decision from startrek.website, or a problem with my account precisely?

Thanks for your help!

Subbed and so glad to be here.

Really glad to find this place, looking forward to being part of the community,

Regarding donations though: Would you be able to share details on costs and how any Patreon money is spent?

Lemmy seems nice, next we need an app

I can't seem to dm you for some reason (maybe because I'm registered on programming.dev?), but if you were interested I'd love to get startrekgifs running here with a clean start.

I saw most of TNG and all of Voyager and DS9 during their initial runs as a kid and to this day Voyager is still my favorite Trek series. It can be a little variable at times with guest writers, like the warp 10 thing, and the series finale manages to be one of the most anti-climactic of anything I’ve ever seen, but it had a real killer of an ensemble cast, a larger story, and a surprising amount of character development. And I know I already mentioned the cast but it’s hard not to love mama bear Janeway

My wife has always casually liked TOS but had never seen all of TNG or any of DS9 or VOY. We watched all of them together during lockdown. She liked them all, but Voyager was her favorite of the bunch, too
