Go check out the first few posts on !tenforward@lemmy.world to learn why. Essentially the startrek instance admin was power tripping, instance got abandoned by the main moderators and content contributors to get away from that.
I understand that but none of the replacements came close to matching the level of content and quality, risa used to always be popping in recent and I've not found any of the replacements (I subscribed to them all) to be anywhere near that. Not saying the action wasn't warranted (it probably was) but still sad.
Nah it wasn't warranted. The Ten Forward mods are a bunch of racists, queerphobes, and ableists. See my other comments in this thread. https://lemmy.ca/post/23657413/9955653
The Ten Forward moderators are bigger assholes than anything I ever saw from the star trek people. Racist memes, defending the use of slurs. I don't really pay attention to the community, but the clique in charge of it are toxic. Sounds like they were just projecting hard and looking for an excuse to set up their own private fiefdom
And here's Picard Maneuver posting a racist meme that exoticises native american culture and appropriates the aesthetic of w*ndigo: https://lemmy.ca/comment/9943648
I never saw anything like this filth on the star trek site. I think the Ten Forward people just left because they weren't allowed to post their racism and queerphobia on Risa.
Yes, I have spoken to people face to face. As far as I'm aware, everyone on the internet has, because traditionally children learn to listen and speak before they can read and write. What an absurd question. Are you a human being, or are you a martian struggling to understand earth culture? And I'm a native english speaker. Mi parolas iomete esperanton, kai watashi wa sukoshi nihongo o wakarimasu.
