Shall we embrace crossposting? -- Absolutely. Most content on Reddit is crossposted from god knows where. It's how sites like this work.

Shall we have links in our bios? -- Depends. I certainly won't-

Advocacy? -- I was never active enough over there to speak to that, but... up to you. I'm waiting to hear that speaking of alternatives has become a bannable offence.

Ignore?

-- I think that's wrong. See 1 as for why.

Honestly, for me it's not so much what they did, but rather how they went about it. To clarify, them wanting people to use the official app is fair enough, but instead of market economy, i.e. providing the superior product, they went gilded age capitalism and try to hulk smash the competition, and that's just not on for me.

I've said this elsewhere, but this is Peak Star Trek. This is what Trek always was and always should be. Cerebral, examining the human condition and generally less reliant on shooty shooty bang bang than other franchises.

I don't know. I haven't been back since the day the move was announced. So if they have decided to reopen, be it old mods or not, all the power to them. I don't care any more.

My biggest (only real) gripe with it is the "sit by and watch a civilisation die from something we could prevent inside five minutes without ever being noticed" shtick.

There'll always be people who thrive in that sort of environment. Very recently someone said he was going to block me because I didn't agree with him on how PIC S3 is 'stupid fan pandering and NotTrueTrek' and instead asked what he would suggest as an alternative if in charge. I.e. some people are in it for the ranting and internet fighting.

This is pretty much what I think as well. I migrated to here mostly because I think that the root and core of the Community has done the same, and r/startek was one of the few places where you could still talk Star Trek without unreasonable whining.

Okay, so as someone who is has been playing Stellaris for years now... the user interface and what we've seen of gameplay looks very familiar. This looks to be a mix between BOTF and Stellaris. I like!

Reminds me of when I got banned from a Star Wars forum for saying that I liked some aspects of the prequels ('twas long ago) and not hating on them and Lucas enough.

EDIT: That being said, for me, r/startrek was more about the community, and the spirit, core of it has moved here, then so be it. If reddit is little more than a knowledgebase/thing I come across when googling STObuilds or something then that's also fine.

And all because like your's truly, Jonathan Frakes hates the act of shaving.

God yes. That's so goddamn annoying every time. Primary reason why I always skip 30 days.

Ironically, it actually doesn't affect me either, since 9 times out of ten, I use/used Reddit on desktop, my phone being, well a goddamn phone and an Ersatz-Kindle.

Having used the app exactly once several years ago, I can't speak to that, but I can see that...

The Menagerie also worked out well, didn't it? Granted it only started as a courtroom drama. And then there's Court Martial. TLDR: Trek could pull this in the past.

Ich halte meinen Account aktiv, primär weil, wie viele ander gesagt haben, Reddit trotz aller Unkenrufe ne massive knowledgebase ist, und aber auch weil Ich für einige gute Internetfreunde zumindest bis auf weiteres keine andere Kontaktmöglichkeit habe.

Relativity and if we somewhat widen the definition, Shattered.

Many, many, many years ago, there was a novel that had a Warp bomb (or the supposed impossibility of one) as a premise. It was set pre-First Contact and rotated around Zefram Cochrane being forced by IIRC Colonel Green to try and develop one.

It was. They used different lighting to make the same two or three rooms appear as whatever non-standard set they needed. IIRC most "generic room #1231" sets were one and the same with furniture re-arranged and different lighting.

She's Starfleet JAG though, so she might end up on the other side....
