What it says on the tin, really. I think this is going to be an issue when they get around to the smaller communities… It’s going to suck majorly, as most people’s default will remain with reddit for community discussion like this…

I think it won’t be overnight, but there’s probably a sea change coming where more and more people are getting fed up with gigantic centralized platforms and all the manipulation and trolling that the companies operating them are all too happy to let go on. I seriously doubt the mods are going to get their way on Reddit, but I suspect it’s going to get even less worth visiting from here on out.
I agree with the sea change. The reason we started an instance as opposed to just joining another is that we wanted to help that change along by providing a familiar community to a group of people statistically more likely to be both nerdy and optimistic about the future.
Yeah, and I think it was a wonderful move. Star Trek is nerdy but also approachable to a wide range of people so I think it is a perfect early adopter of lemmy.
Star Trek was very over-represented on usenet boards back in the 90s, so it seems appropriate that it would have an early presence on this new frontier.
@porthos I couldn’t agree more! Been a fan of S T since the TNG days. Proud to be one of the #Blind Trekies out there among said federation/threaderation!
Posting from Mastodon, though shall sign up over on said enterprise to further show my appreciation.
PS. Although TNG is my favorite series, DS9 is my mother’s favorite. She’s always looked up to major kira.
Good choice on your mom’s part, kira is badass. Seriously, I don’t know why everyone isn’t terrified of getting in her way sometimes hahaha, she is a freight train of willpower.
Sign up for an account here at startrek.website! Even if you don’t use it as your main account you could pick out a funny star trek related name and use it for comedic purposes on comments… not that I would ever do that of course.
But you’re using your real name right…?
give me a slice of cheese and you can believe anything you want
