glaceon.social is a community of people with diverse interests. This is a general instance with no specific topic you're required to stick to; feel free to talk about whatever! About the only constant is that if someone has an account here, they probably like pokemon at least a little. If that sounds like a good time, welcome to glaceon.social.
Please note that at this time, this is a primarily English-language instance. Unfortunately, I can only effectively moderate a site where the vast majority of posts are in the language I understand. I apologize for the inconvenience.

GDPR and CCPAglaceon.social uses cookies to maintain your login session and for no other reason.
glaceon.social stores your email address, which is used as your account name to log you in. Your email is not visible to anyone but the administrators of the site. We do not send you email unless you request it.
glaceon.social has no advertising partners. Because of the nature of a federated social network, we share your non-private posts with other servers. However, we do not share your personal data, or aggregated non-personal data, with anyone. We do publish statistical data about the entire body of glaceon.social users as a way for others to measure the health of our instance, but your individual information cannot be extracted from those figures.
ScrapingEach user of glaceon.socail retains all copyright to the original content of posts they make on glaceon.social. You may not make a copy of any other user's posts for any purpose other than the normal functioning of ActivityPub federation and the RSS feeds generated by the Mastodon software of any content originally posted to glaceon.social without acquiring the affirmative consent of the administrator for each post you wish to copy. If you maintain such a copy of any post that originated on glaceon.social, you must regularly check back with the server to determine whether that post has been changed or removed, and you must update your copy or depiction to reflect any changes to the post, or remove your copy or depiction if the post has been removed.
Help, I've been suspended!If you were a glaceon.social user and your account was suspended:This is unlikely to be reverted. Account suspension is used as a measure of last resort. If you truly, truly believe that such a decision was made in error, contact
admin@glaceon.social with a ban appeal. Please don't waste my time.
Note that the Mastodon software deletes all of a suspended user's data after 30 days. If 30 days have passed, your account
cannot be unsuspended; the data no longer exists.
If you are a remote user and you believe your account or your instance was suspended by glaceon.social:Again, this is unlikely to be reverted. Instance and remote account suspensions are intended to be final decisions. If you believe that an error has been made, contact
admin@glaceon.social. Please don't waste my time.
