You have a top secret ultra elite experimental ship with a spore drive... with what? Something something tardigrades?
But then your crew is a criminal, cadet Tilly?, everyone is unstable/untrustworthy, and a rather high concentration of LGBT people?
But you get banned for pointing this out.
What are the current solutions for discoverability in Lemmy? Having a tombstone on Reddit pointing people towards a specific instance is good but it’s still hard to be the definitive community when the namespace isn’t as restricted any more. Maybe that’s better?
I don’t see this approach as a viable one, but time will tell. I never subscribed to the Startrek subreddit, but having it on an isolated website instead of been agglomerated on a solution like Reddit will have an engagement decrease, especially when people who subscribed to the sub still participates in other subreddits.
Did you hear about federation?
Big loss, I would google stuff like: "Why is there only one Negus in deep space 9?" and more often than not it was a Reddit thread someone submitted 8 years ago with in depth knowledge. This is huge, hopefully more communities migrate away from Reddit. That platform got way too big for it's britches. Just don't move to Discord, Discord is terrible. The major problem Reddit has and will always have is "power moderator…
Edit: Currently, on my 1900x1200 monitor I can see ALMOST 6 posts on the default landing page.
this is so sad. i understand the protest, but it feels like burning books. is all that prior information gone? or is the protest temporary way to get the community migrated away but content will be restored for historical purposes?
Not to be a jerk about it, but this is why you shouldn't have stored the books in a warehouse owned by a company that could lock the doors at any time. This is the opposite of why the 'net was invented.

I guess I’m horribly out of date, but why not go to the actual Reddit website or just use the official Reddit app? I don’t know why you’d be forced into a third party tool for something that doesn’t require it. I’d never even heard of Apollo until a few days ago.
They've also been neutering/breaking the mobile version of the site for years trying to force people to use the Reddit mobile app.
I spent a decade+ actively on reddit, and I truly loved its hobby & local communities during that time. I deleted my account last week; I don't believe they'll change. Life is too short to spend it on things you don't love anymore.

more like building a new library
After burning the current one, books and all. Granted this had to do with the fact that unlike any other agreed upon standard protocol, Reddit posts are not accessible except by indirect means, i.e. you can’t download the contents of a community the same way you would with a git repository or an email server and migrate it elsewhere.
They could probably import the data to lemmy.
