Want a non-LW Star Trek meme community? So do I. So I made one.

So for the unaware, I moved over to db0 a few days ago due to a disagreement with administration on Lemmy.world. I moved over a couple of communities so I could continue posting in places that weren’t on Lemmy.world and /c/TenForward was a consideration. However, the guys who currently run it there either weren’t interested in helping mod a new community or weren’t interested in porting TenForward. Totally fine. I have zero issue with this at all and still love and fully support the guys. If you wanna post over there, by all means! I just didn’t want to post to a LW community anymore.

So, in the interest in not pissing off people I call my friend, I made a new community with a different name. I don’t want to try and “steal” the name TenForward from them. I mean that’d just be rude. Like taking their name out from under them. At least that’s how it might come off. The last thing I want to do is upset them. I love them and don’t, in ANY WAY, want anyone criticizing them due to those decisions. It’s their choice. That’s the point of the fediverse! But, as one of em said, the great thing about the fediverse is that you don’t need to centralize everything. So, I have made a new Trek memes community.

Good luck, looking forward you posting dozens of memes over there

So fucking many…

eheheheee i kinda adore that we’re back to risa

Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 28 Sep 12:28 collapse

The only reason I never used Risa in the first place was because I left amicably. They proceeded to start an unholy amount of shit after the fact which sort of wiped out any respect I ever had for them in the first place. So… Risa.

Anything they can do, I can do better.

Anything they can do, I can do better.

That’s the spirit that brought us here from Reddit. That’s the spirit that makes small communities managed by invested people better than namesitter communities waiting for people to build them.

Activity is what makes a community succeed.

Thank you for your service, subbed to all of them!

Only missing daystrom and shittydaystrom LOL

It’s good to divest away from .world, maybe I’ll even get to posting ST now ~w~

Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 28 Sep 13:10 collapse

Well Daystrom I would definitely be one to comment on but it’s never been totally within my wheelhouse. I’d totally sub if you made it though

alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 28 Sep 19:45 collapse

Thing is I don’t really have the capacity to moderate (any more) coms, much less regularly post in them

Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 28 Sep 22:27 collapse

That’s fair and sort of where I’m at with all mine now

Well we’ve got TenForward and Risa… OH YEAH! TenForward@Piefed.world. Forgot about that one

GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org on 28 Sep 14:36 next collapse

Is there something wrong with startrek.website?

Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 28 Sep 14:42 collapse

Oh boy…

If you want the full story, check this thread. If you want to know more of the continuing stories, check this thread.

The tl;dr though? The admins of startrek.website are the same guys who made the subreddits on reddit and the ones who were responsible for giving those subreddits an extremely bad name. If you ever noticed a ton of subreddits for the individual episodes, even multiple for each, it’s because of people who were running from them. They are psychotically abusive of their position, remove people for little to no reason, suppress any argument/position that they find distasteful, have completely misunderstood literally every single that that Star Trek teaches and personally harassed me by contacting admins from both multiple lemmy instances as well as my Mastodon instance to attempt to get me banned. Why? Because I was one of the biggest posters on their instance who noticed their abuse and left, taking the other big posters with me.

In short, they’re thin skinned psychopaths who have no business calling themselves Trek fans when they have shirked every single duty to the truth that anyone in the Star Trek fandom has.

Oh. Well that sucks.

I think I remember you from before, if you’re the same Stamets. You posted a lot. I’ll join your new Risa then.

mmmm. The ! does not seem to be working for me. Thats supposed to work across domains yeah?

Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 30 Sep 20:57 collapse

Its supposed to. Try this link.

HubertManne@piefed.social on 30 Sep 21:03 collapse

That works fine but like at least the main one and the next three on the list don’t redirect and I get the lemmy instead of piefed path to it. The one you just put in this reply im replying to though sends me to piefed version fine.

Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 30 Sep 21:13 collapse

Huh. That’s fucking odd. I just tested it on Piefed.world as well and same issue but on lemmy.world they do redirect correctly. Looks like Piefed might have some issue with that.

At any rate, I’ve updated the list in the post. A set of extra links that are using a thing called Lemmyverse which should allow you to set a home instance on the first click and it’ll redirect to your instances version of that post/user/community. Only need to set the home instance once and you can change it easily anytime.

HubertManne@piefed.social on 30 Sep 21:21 next collapse

Yup that worked.

Zulip is a much better platform to be able to find information back, one day we’ll make it the main communication platform for Fediverse projects
