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.

Thanks for the update, you might want to try clearing your DNS. I'm a Firefox user as well and it's working fine.

The world just isn't ready for us yet.

We haven't been able to replicate this. Have tried this recently? Or is it an error from a few weeks ago? I ask because we had a brief issue that gave a similar error but has since been fixed.

Not a bad idea for the future!

Go into your user settings and set the theme to "mintybubble"

It's completely ugly, but it is full-width. yes, it's in our future plans to have a better theme(s).

/r/StarTrek had a Wiki page for Twitter accounts of Trek actors and writers, perhaps when our wiki is up and running we can maintain a list of production folk on the Fediverse.

I think Trekbooks was lightly moderated anyway, but I could definitely see it making sense to have them or similar a Treklit community on this instance eventually regardless.

Just a quick update for everyone, yes OP is right and a bunch of bots signed up. We've purged them from our user count and enabled CAPTCHA. Email verification is coming soon as a secondary deterrent.

For the record nobody told us that it's not safe out here. We were aware that self-hosting was wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross; but has NO IDEA that it wasn't for the timid. 😉

So far r/Trekbooks (or anyone TrekLit for that matter) hasn't reached out to us, but if you have a connect please shoot me a DM.
