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.

What is this, the Mycelium Network?!

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 :) πŸ––

Free from the Ferengi's profiteering schemes

I was fumbling around Lemmy instances looking for a β€œhome 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!

[–] [email protected] 13 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.

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

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

Saw this post on lemmy.world and subscribed!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

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.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago (9 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

I wanna see a r/shittydaystrom here as well

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

They should have named it startrek.federation

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

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

Make it so.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Any chance r/startrekmemes is also coming over here?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

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!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

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 😎

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.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

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

@Stoat If all the good subs move to KBin, then what good is my Karma?

Then again, what good is my Karma?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

It was literally only good to keep your brain hooked and building that karma. Clever assholes. Glad to get rid of that site.
