RetroFed

Welcome to the nostalgia-filled piefed instance of yesteryear.

Open Registration with Application questionnaire.

If you have a question or comment you can post in !meta@retrofed.com or message @DosDude@retrofed.com or @Die4Ever@retrofed.com

In case of downtime and/or emergency, we will post updates on @DosDude@mastodon.social

Some rules we try to uphold:

  • Be civil. Bigotry is not welcome. This includes (but is not limited to): transphobia, queerphobia, racism, ageism and ableism. We do not promote hate.
  • Communities need to be Retro or Retro-adjacent.
  • Please don't upload pornographic content. (use an external image host for that)

This effectively applies to everyone - how are you going to prove you're a resident at 1am? If you are a minority, or on a visa, it seems likely they might just take your paperwork and disappear you regardless

I misread the comment at first, but to be clear it's saying it applies to everyone.

The curfew applies to anyone who is under 18 years old. That includes visitors to the city, not just residents.
