What’s more Star Trek than joining the federation?
@captainjaneway @Stoat doing it hung over on bootleg romulan ale

🤫 Don’t tell that to the Star Wars fandom! The force is also strong in the fediverse.
Hey maybe this could be what’s displayed over on /r/startrek while it is down.
hahahah yes pleasee
I’m replying to a mastodon post, from a separate lemmy instance federated with startrek.website.
I’m living in the future.
What is this, the Mycelium Network?!
no sir. this is the federation.
I thought it was a Wendy’s.
I thought we were the borg
No, that’s the Delta Quadrant.
And now I have the Pearl Jam song stuck in my head. Thanks.
Free from the Ferengi’s profiteering schemes
I was fumbling around Lemmy instances looking for a “home base”, frustrated when I couldn’t find anything I liked. Then I found this one posted on the Lemmy subreddit and was immediately excited!
Hit it!
I’m in the same boat! None of the big, general-purpose instances had quite what I was looking for. A dedicated one for Star Trek makes me feel like I’m on-school Star Trek forums again, which is the way to (boldly) go.
You are welcome!
hey all! I see that /r/strangenewworlds is also going to remain in restricted mode indefinitely, would you perhaps reach out to the mods there, and see if they’d like to join the Federation? :-D
If memory serves, they were shutting down for everything except discussion threads. IDK if that plan changed or not.
yep, i think that was their plan… might as well extend the olive branch, though, and see if they’d like to join the Federation
Saw this post on lemmy.world and subscribed!
To boldly go
Do you Federation enthusiasts know that Lemmy developers are using Star Trek names for their testing instances?
Ha! That’s awesome
Clearly I’m living on another instance, but I’m wondering is startrek.website community creation is locked or not? Feels like all the different Trek sub-communities should be hosted here. Show specific ones like Lower Decks, things like Star Trek Online, etc. but so far it seems like its just the big 3.
There should be an Orville community there because the Orville is a Star Trek show.
Hey, if it stars an extra from Enterprise, it’s canon.
Cassidy Yates is also a regular there so double canon?
Voyager’s Doctor makes an appearance too
If we count all the guest stars (Picardo, Sirtis, Billingsly, Russ, etc) and directors (Frakes, McNeill) together, it might be close to triple canon then.
Edit: Couldn’t leave Tuvok relegated to “etc”.
And it has the (sniff) ideology of Trek
The Doctor vs. Phlox, even. Turns out Phlox was a bit of a dick.
Marina Sirtis is in an episode as well.
… and some more I’d forgotten about: https://screenrant.com/orville-star-trek-actors-cameos-every/
Wow, I didn’t recognize him without the Denobulan makeup
I miss The Orville! It filled a huge void for me.
I just started watching that show a couple days ago
That’s in the plans for the future for sure! (I’m the Admin for StarTrek.website)
I wanna see a r/shittydaystrom here as well
its such a fun sub
There is a whole lot of love love for ShittyDaystrom on this mod team, so no worries. It’ll be here!
Your username should either be Computer or The Warp Core.
This unit must survive.
I have a suggestion: !ApatheticDaystrom … for when you thought you had a really in-depth point and then got to the end of your post and realized you didn’t really defend your thesis but want to post anyway so all that time wasn’t wasted.
Which mod were you on the /r/startrek sub?
Are the rules from there basically carried over here? Or will we start seeing racist/homophobic/other shitty behavior-style trek posts being allowed?
Just want to know if signing up is worth it or if I should move on.
Thank you.
I’m the original founder of /r/StarTrek and while I’m not a mod there anymore, I can vouch that the teams there and here are the same.
OK cool, thank you. I guess I will see how things pan out. Appreciate you guys taking the time to keep the community going.
Not just going, boldly going.
HA!
And I am so happy to see that. I joined up yesterday
@Stoat If all the good subs move to KBin, then what good is my Karma?
Then again, what good is my Karma?
It was literally only good to keep your brain hooked and building that karma. Clever assholes. Glad to get rid of that site.
I suspect the Tibetan Buddhist understanding of karma as something you impose upon yourself is oddly appropriate here.
I figure that a move from lemmy to kbin would be pretty seamless.
Make it so.
Any chance r/startrekmemes is also coming over here?
We expect to expand our communities as we gain more users, so there likely will be an equivalent space on here eventually. In the mean time, though, I encourage you to meme it up on /c/risa!
