Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Canada should set up it's own official fediverse Instances

It may be that CBC is watching the outcome of the BBC pilot.

I meant like the Canadian government should have official public emergency accounts, but the CBC would be cool too!

I was surprised BBC's instance is essentially just repackaged RSS feeds and not a place for their journalists to have official accounts.
