Of course right after this announcement, there were some issues with the chat. Looking at it now, sorry for the downtime. It seems our datacenter in Tel Aviv was hit, we will be restoring a backup from the Israeli embassy in Washington DC. View quoted note →

Attn local users, some time this summer we will probably nuke the instance and start over. The main reason is because soapbox isn't maintained anymore. It would be nice to start over anyway. Ideally we would also set up a couple different frontends so that everyone has options. To make this transition as easy as possible, please join the mugichat if you have not yet. I will post updates there, and you can enjoy the daily displays of mental illness. I will be sending new sign up links via that or a fedi alt that I know you have. This restart won't happen for a couple months, but I wanted to get it on your radar. Maybe we will do it as a 3rd anniversary thing.

Dear Fedizens, we are pleased to announce the First Annual TheoryToE Creepypasta Competition. We are looking for brief, paranormal stories featuring notorious fedi personality 'TheoryToE' a/k/a 'The Thig'. Submissions can be political or apolitical, mundane or fantastical but must follow in the internet horror tradition. There is a prize courtesy of the Thiggy Thigster's archnemesis, Burner. He will make for the victor the Thiggy Cup with the name of the victor, and a short message, engraved on the vessel. The trophy will be delivered via private message in .jpeg and .mp4 format. To enter, please post your story on the timeline, and tag with #thiggypasta2025. Please keep your work below 5,000 words. Submissions open today, and close on the 10th of May. Entries will be judged after the closing. Please speak with Rher if you have any questions. The selection panel looks forward to reading your submissions.
