    The real problem is that there aren’t any good tools for users to deal with this. As a user, I wish I could just join some kind of meta community that aggregates content from multiple communities, instead of having to manually track down and join all the random star trek instances on the fediverse.

    Having a lot of communities for the same topic is ultimately good, but the user experience needs to be good too.

      Yea, and we’re in a moment right now where making a new parallel community can actually disrupt the user experience, IMO.

      Though, to be clear, it would be good if some features came to make it easier to participate and keep up with multiple parallel communities.

      Which is our goal. We want a rich and vibrant Star Trek community. One that isn’t restricted to Paramount approval.

        Wait … what? You think startrek.website (I’m guessing) is subject to Paramount’s whims or astroturfing? Where does that come from?

        I’m also guessing part of the idea of this community is to be more openly critical like the “free people, we don’t bend the knee” sort of sub-reddit? Which is fine … just trying to get a feel here and I think being open and clear is good.

          When STD releases it will be very obvious. Just watch their modlog as they ban anyone critical of the series. Unlike reddit they can’t hide their actions on lemmy.

            I’m getting the impression that you were banned from their community for something you posted, and decided to start your own community with blackjack and hookers in response.
