Star_Trek is a safe harbour for Star Trek fans that may have found themselves on the receiving end of the ban hammer for daring to have an opinion that differed from the power mad mods on Reddit’s Star Trek sub and/or Lemmy’s own StarTrek.website.

You’re safe to like or dislike any show, character, writer, showrunner or episode here.

So come and discuss the greatest sci-fi franchise in history free from rogue mods on power trip.

    I dont trust any community that specifically caters to people that were banned from another community and makes a point to have that as part of their identity. Because being banned doesn’t just include those that were unfairly banned but also the ones that were rightly banned and the latter will eventually drive out the former or theyll get kicked out again and create another “we were banned” community. I especially dont trust a community like this when ten forward already exists as an alternative.

      Go have a read of the modlog on the communities on the startrek.website instance. You’ll see that almost none are justifiable bans and nearly are all for disagreeing with the mod’s opinions or calling them out for shitty behaviour.

      It was the same story on Reddit too. The mods here are the same from the main Trek sub over there.

        This is like the 3rd or 4th star trek community (that I’ve seen) that’s been announced on this exact community, though. All with pretty much the same purpose. Why not just join one of the existing ones?

          It’s the only one on Lemmy.zip and I can’t say it’s free from the other mods and people are completely free to share their opinions without being the one who sets the rules.

          Besides I do have ideas for it to become a unique community over time.
