Soooooo one thing I haven't really brought up yet but the new GoToSocial release does allow us to subscribe the instance to relays. Is that something people here would like? I think the main thing that would do for us is to populate hashtag timelines.

Personally, I feel like leaving that off. I rather like the federated timeline we've built up using the tastes of those here and feel like adding relays might just reduce the surprisingly-high signal to noise ratio we've been getting. If there's a consensus the other direction, though, I'm willing to reconsider that. :)

(In case it needs clarification for some reason: I'm only inviting input on this from Polymaths.social members.)
