/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

That, and some communities having petty-tyrant mods, and admins of some instances the same.
But... Tenforward isn't that way, and someone can always go elsewhere to other instances or even other platforms - e.g. I'm over here on PieFed:-). I did consider leaving myself if I couldn't block all the political posts from Lemmy.ml prior to the USA election, so I'm glad PieFed gave me the option to stay.
In any case, I hope Stamets finds peace irl by touching grass (and I very much hope he returns someday after that!:-).
Yeah, blocking certain people and instances certainly has made my life on Lemmy better. There is likely more to it than just that. I wish him well also and also hope for his eventual return.
So...reddit
