What "third generation" Trek is worth watching?
Reply in thread
Give it a couple of episodes (like everything Trek). I was initially unimpressed with the first episode, but then rewatched it and a few more and were hooked. And I second the suggestions to watch Strange New Worlds and deprioritize Discovery and Picard.

What country do you recommend for visiting?
Depends on what you're looking for and what languages you speak.
Beautiful scenery: Sweden, Switzerland, Canada
Japan and Korea are both lovely and fun. Only speaking English is a challenge but not insurmountable. I got around and had fun in both.

Breaking the industry out of the ATX motherboard rut was a great thing. Glad they did it.

Mastodon is to Twitter as kbin is to Reddit. Mastodon: a feed of posts from people and/or hashtags you subscribed to. kbin: a set of rooms (magazines) that you subscribed to. So kbin is more like a bunch of smaller bulletin boards / forums, while Mastodon is a linear time ordered list of posts from people/things you like.

A "non-toxic social network" is just a fancy way of saying censorship
If one's politics are rooted in hate, then you'll certainly think you're being oppressed if politeness is enforced. That's a problem with one's politics, not with the enforcers. :)

"God saw how corrupt Reddit had become and said to the Lemmy devs, I am going to bring floodwaters upon them to destroy all life. Make thee an ark and bring into it all relevant subreddits."
And then He said, "wait, Lemmy is developed by Tankies, whose beliefs are counter to Me. Let there be a Plan B." And kbin was born. And it was good.

Was the lemmyverse/threadiverse aware that Mastodon has been convulsed for the past 2 days?
There's nothing wrong with talking. What a silly controversy.

VPS and piracy

Not just your instance. Every instance Federated with it that got a copy of your post is part of the chain of evidence. Don't plan crimes in the fediverse for heaven sakes.

Given that the Fediverse is wide open, unencrypted, and your instance owner is no more immune to getting a subpoena from law enforcement than anyone else ... one might think twice about asking questions of the form "if I commit a crime can they find me" here. Even if your VPS can't detect it, you just left a paper trail here by asking how to commit a crime. :) Bad plan.
Your Fediverse instance owner might consider deleting your post and perhaps your account to keep them from being the subject of such a subpoena in the future.
