What's more Star Trek than joining the federation?

Hey maybe this could be what’s displayed over on /r/startrek while it is down.

I'm replying to a mastodon post, from a separate lemmy instance federated with startrek.website.

I'm living in the future.

[-] trekkie@startrek.website 31 points 2 years ago

What is this, the Mycelium Network?!

[-] Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de 22 points 2 years ago

no sir. this is the federation.

[-] trekkie@startrek.website 11 points 2 years ago

I thought it was a Wendy’s.

I'm replying to your post on a lemmy instance federated with startrek.website, from another lemmy instance federated with lemmy.world.

Things get mighty confusing, but fun in their own ways.

EDIT: Also didn't realise that this was a Mastodon post, but that would explain why some of the comments have a bit of unusual formatting.

@Stoat @startrek Trekkie’s leading the way to a brighter tomorrow. As usual :) 🖖

Do you Federation enthusiasts know that Lemmy developers are using Star Trek names for their testing instances?

[-] T156@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

Speaking of Federation enthusiasts, the whole network is supposedly part of a Federation, which is a fun touch.

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!

[-] bpickle@startrek.website 12 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago

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.

[-] Admin@startrek.website 22 points 2 years ago

That's in the plans for the future for sure! (I'm the Admin for StarTrek.website)

[-] kargarocP4@startrek.website 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I wanna see a r/shittydaystrom here as well
its such a fun sub

There should be an Orville community there because the Orville is a Star Trek show.

They should have named it startrek.federation

Saw this post on lemmy.world and subscribed!

[-] FormerGameDev@midwest.social 16 points 2 years ago

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

Make it so.

[-] trekkie@startrek.website 13 points 2 years ago

Will you be updating lemmy-ui and the backend to 0.17.4? They have major database performance improvements.

[-] Admin@startrek.website 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I did not realize there was an update, I just installed the latest on Saturday. Thank you this is great to know.

Also dang, nice job on scoring that username 😎

Any chance r/startrekmemes is also coming over here?

@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.

will this community also censure people whom talk about the remote possibility that the new star trek series might not be very good

[-] Lockely@pawb.social 28 points 2 years ago

There's literally a post in their front page about criticism with Disco S4 that's incredibly constructive.

The issue was never about criticism. The issue was lazy, nonconstructive criticism.

[-] joestaen@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

i was barred from r/startrek for commenting on how the completely unprofessional attitudes of characters toward the chain of command was irritating to me. i compared it to the "finally" scene from tng, and how discovery has worse occurrences happen repeatedly every episode that just get completely ignored

[-] knova@links.dartboard.social 11 points 2 years ago

And I am so happy to see that. I joined up yesterday

[-] extropian@startrek.website 10 points 2 years ago

THIS is the kind of action I was hopeful for. I haven't had a reddit account in nearly two years out of principle, and it feels great to be able to geek out/interact with other star trek nerds online.

[-] psychothumbs@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Incredible work, I'm so proud of this community! Makes sense that Star Trek fans would see the value of the federationverse
