Starfleet HQ

The Federations source for all Star Trek news, updates, and discussion.

Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not Klingon
Engage respectfully with fellow crew members.

  • No harassment, brigading, or trolling
  • No bigotry (racism, sexism, transphobia, etc.)
  • Disagreeing is fine, but personal attacks are not

Rule 2 — Stay On Topic
Posts should be related to Star Trek: news, updates, official announcements, or meaningful discussion.

  • Off-topic content may be removed
  • Memes should be quarantined under a level 5 containment field to !Risa@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rule 3 — No Prohibited Content
Some things are not allowed aboard the ship.

  • No spam or scams
  • No illegal content
  • No porn or sexually explicit material
  • NSFW content must be properly tagged

Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Is Not Starfleet
You can have your opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek, but forcing them on others is not allowed.

  • Everyone’s perspective is valid, TOS purists and Lower Decks fans alike
  • Keep debates about canon and quality friendly and inclusive

If you see a post breaking the rules, report it so the moderators can handle it. If you'd like to be a mod, shoot Stamets a message.

I can’t imagine questioning Kate Mulgrew as Janeway. She was brilliant and iconic and inspiring.

She’s iconic because they went with her for the series. This article is about the other actress they initially started filming with, but who ultimately withdrew from the series. It’s simply an interesting “what if” consideration.
