      Don’t get me wrong … I love all the memes you’ve been creating … they send me down endless rabbit holes to read about Trek related content all day long … it’s beautiful.

      I go to Memory Alpha all the time … first time I’ve heard of ex-astris-scientia.org … thanks!

      I’ve always loved Trek but I’ve never really found a circle of friends in my life who felt the same way. c/tenforward has become my favourite place on the internet these days.

      Thanks to you and thanks to everyone for being here

        I’m just glad people are participating in our community.

        Careful with Ex Astris Scientia. It is absolutely a time suck.

      Back in my day, we used the original Memory Alpha:

      Linking to ex astris scientia with no safe guards? Around here that is more dangerous than a link to tvtropes.

        I’m not saying I work for them, but I’m not saying I don’t get a paycheck every time I direct a Lemmy user there.

      and if you want a browsing experience that doesn’t s*ck @ss, try adding “anti” in front of the fandom domain:

        TBH, that looks worse to me. Are you on mobile? I usually use a desktop and memory-alpha works just fine. I am using Firefox with an adblocker, that might help.

          yes mobile, no adblocker, so that’s the quickest solution for me to avoid auto playing video ads all over the place

            Fair enough. I avoid mobile browsing as much as possible because of things like that.

              yeah between financial gain incentive and cookie consent popups, it’s getting difficult out there! in any case thank you for your feedback, fellow Star Trek meme enjoyer!

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
