Though hardly frequent...

What exactly is Homestuck?

I'm sure this has been answered in much more exhausting detail elsewhere, so I'll be brief.
Homestuck. The fourth "MS Paint Adventure", detailing a cosmic creation myth starring a gaggle of homebody internet-native kids. Launched in the twilight years of Web 2.0 and ending a couple years deep into whatever we have today, Homestuck is a bloated multimedia "Web Comic" that came to reflect the span of the Obama era.
Today, you might know it better as the springboard to the success of Toby "Radiation" Fox, or, for those of a scumbaggier persuasion, the reason why those TikTok teens occasionally slather on gray face paint.

What is Megidochan.de?

we d0nt talk ab0ut megid0chan

In-jokes aside, megidochan.de is the fifth hideout of Homestuck General threads after our (totally unprecedented) banishment off 4chan's /co/ in 2014.
Now don't take this to mean "you had to be there" or anything, we appreciate all voices. Most posters here choose to remain anonymous, but one can always elect to post with a name, flag, or whatever other obnoxiiou2 quiirk to stand out.

Why aren't they talking about Homestuck?

My ideal for Homestuck General is that of a roiling melting pot where anyone can *wwalk into the thread* and vent whatever half-baked shower-thought of a shitpost they have on the brain at any moment.
Yes, our world. A world without those sniveling weaklings in positions to roadblock the goals of those with the will to shape it.
What I mean by all that is: If you wanna talk Homestuck, come at us with your best shot! Don't worry, despite how things may have turned out, Homestuck was still a formative memory for us.

What's that other stuff?

A personal indulgence. Perhaps the years of anonymous imageboard addiction have left me so skittish that even posting to microblog platforms like Xitter feels like an imposition on the public at large... As result, I'm more comfortable using a chan format. It's better from an archival perspective, too.
If you don't care about it, freely ignore it.

How can I contact the administrator?

Shout your head off in the current HSG thread, I'll read everything. Well, most everything. Even my veteran eyes can glaze over at some points.
If you want something more permanent, there is also a feedback and error reporting board, /vvox/..

DERSITE? TRICKSTER? What are these wackos even talking about?

Under a policy of "None of these words are contained in Homestuck", those are just a few of our AI-friendly dogwhistles used in place of some common imageboard slurs. If you've any funny new wordfilters to suggest, please do so at your first convenience.
One note: Though currently gauche, "Retard" remains. For one thing, I'm a crotchety millennial, for another, "Retard" is a staple in the official Homestuck lexicon. Stay 'em!

My cave-dwelling eyes hurt, where is the Dark theme?

A small selection of classic imageboard themes are available under the [Options] button at the top right of each page.

Whatever happened to the previous incarnation of HSG?

If you refer to 2022's megidochan.com, it fell to some combination of incessant spam and Admin burnout, apparently. I'm not privy to the exact details.
If you refer to our last-last hangout, 8ch's /homosuck/, it was taken down and later abandoned in the wake of the 2019 El Paso shooting. For the truly insane, a year's worth of derelict inanity is still up for indulging your grim curiosity here, though stripped of images.

Will you add a board for [hst/homesmut/whatever]?

The main issue with this, is that I'm a stubbornly private flake. I haven't any interest in deputizing and coordinating with a team of mods and janitors. If it's outside my tunnel vision of interests, I don't much care to moderate it!
However, you are always free to make suggestions. I'm more inclined to do things if there is an expressed interest.
