A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.

Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

So r/startrek opened their subreddit back up.

https://www.reddit.com/r/startrek/comments/14aifzm/rstartrek_reddit_and_the_future/

But they’re still committed to their #Lemmy instance too. Interesting experiment, running dual communities on both sides.

This sounds like perfect content for a dedicated instance to be honest, hopefully it works out.

Is /c/startrek@lemmy.ml the corresponding community in Lemmy?

[–] gingerrich@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I believe the one the mods created is startrek.website

Come on over

@gingerrich Yep, sorry for omitting that detail.

You'll find the instance at startrek.website and their communities here: https://startrek.website/communities, which consist of parallels of r/startrek, r/daystrom and r/risa (ie, normal star trek community, nerdy community and meme community)

@marv99 I mean, there is no such thing as a corresponding community. There are just communities that may or may not have overlapping interests. Things are still too new and shifting for there to be established communities or pairs of communities.

From my understanding though, yes that’s an old or the oldest Star Trek community on lemmy. But that doesn’t mean it’s active.

If the mods from the subreddit create/run the community or magazine in the Fediverse it is definitely corresponding especially if said mods spread the word on Reddit (which is not against the rules as far as I know)

Ah I get it, thanks for explaining. And sorry for my misunderstanding. I have thought the mods of /r/startrek have created kind of "official substitute" on Lemmy.

[–] maegul@hachyderm.io 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

@marv99 no need to apologise!! All good!

I think I may have misunderstood you!

They did create an official substitute. It’s a whole separate instance at startrek.webpage. r/startrek, r/daystrom and r/risa have set up parallel communities there. I just created a lemmy account in the server too!

[–] marv99@feddit.de 1 points 2 years ago

Thanks for the clarification, I will check this server out :)

I'm getting errors trying to reach https://startrek.website/c/startrek However I was able to successfully search for and join the community at !startrek@startrek.website from my own instance.

Drat, still can't join, at least not from the Jerboa app. Will try tomorrow on web.
