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 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What is this, the Mycelium Network?!

[–] Faceman2K23@discuss.tchncs.de 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

no sir. this is the federation.

[–] trekkie@startrek.website 11 points 1 year ago (6 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!

[–] bpickle@startrek.website 13 points 1 year 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?

[–] T156@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

To boldly go

[–] FormerGameDev@midwest.social 20 points 1 year 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.

[–] Admin@startrek.website 21 points 1 year ago (9 children)

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

[–] kargarocP4@startrek.website 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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.

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

They should have named it startrek.federation

Make it so.

[–] trekkie@startrek.website 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] Admin@startrek.website 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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 😎

Any chance r/startrekmemes is also coming over here?

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!

[–] kinyutaka@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago (6 children)

@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.

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