startrek.website is a partnership between /r/StarTrek and /r/DaystromInstitute from Reddit, they've both locked their subs over there for good. Follow @startrek for all your Trek needs. πŸ–– :trek:

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 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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

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

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!

[–] IdahoVandal@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

and don't forget about /r/tenagra

Reddit, its face white, its eyes red.

[–] PrimeZ@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

[–] PrimeZ@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

OK cool, thank you. I guess I will see how things pan out. Appreciate you guys taking the time to keep the community going.

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not just going, boldly going.

[–] CodingAndCoffee@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Your username should either be Computer or The Warp Core.

"This is your friendly, positronic, pissed off system admin, back on line!"

[–] T156@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Naming it into a more generic sci-fi name, like scifi.website, might have made more sense, since it would open things up for other franchises, like star wars/stargate/doctor who to also be hosted.

It would be a bit like rec.arts.sf.* from back in the day.

[–] melmi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

With Star Trek being such a massive franchise with a bunch of subcommunities, I think it makes some sense for it to be its own thing. There's no need to merge communities, having dedicated spaces is nice.

[–] buckykat@lemmy.fmhy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

[–] gun@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I just started watching that show a couple days ago

[–] RoyalEngineering@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What do you think so far? Season 1 has some pretty good episodesβ€”something you can’t always say about Star Trek proper.

[–] gun@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I thought it was just going to be a parody of star trek the whole time like space balls was for star wars, but it had some interesting concepts and a lot of character development. Not what I expected at all, but I love it.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It gets better, too!

[–] Powderhorn@beehaw.org 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hey, if it stars an extra from Enterprise, it's canon.

[–] raspberry_confetti@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That makes Babylon 5 canon as well.

[–] jackiebrown@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Speaking of.. Did you see the trailer for the new Babylon 5 movie?

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Cassidy Yates is also a regular there so double canon?

[–] buckykat@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Voyager's Doctor makes an appearance too
