TNG is the gateway drug
Kirk
There is some back story needed with that one... but maybe it's tangential enough to make the viewer want to know more?
Devil’s Due
If this was the only episode of Star Trek I'd ever seen I'd have no interest in continuing 😅
I actually think "Inner Light" is a good option for OP because is a "side quest" that doesn't require much backstory, while still being thematically aligned with what to expect with TNG.
No one person can control everything.
Doesn't seem to be stopping you from trying!
Eh, I think you're projecting. He literally owned his instance. He was playing with his own ball at his own house and you got "butthurt" because he didn't want to play with you.
It's no secret that a lot of people are attracted to Lemmy because they felt Reddit mods were too overbearing, but some of us like Lemmy because we didn't think Reddit mods were doing enough about the overbearing users.
He said "this" experiment, not "the fediverse" which I interpreted to mean his instance (or perhaps Lemmy).
That said, I'm honestly curious what do you care about his "toxicty" if he's not an admin of your instance? You don't seriously believe you have a right to dictate what he does with his own hardware do you?
I'm glad we agree.
What did you interpret the premise to be? I read the post when it was up, and it read to me like OP was saying essentially that too many toxic users and not enough admins willing to stand up to them make the overall experience not fun.
EDIT: Which is accurate in my mind at least when it comes to Lemmy
I wanted a very 90s web-feeling GIF of a TOS science division badge
Then I'd consider this silly little guy a success.
I don't disagree, but OP didn't ask for trend predictions. Anyone who tries to convince you "things" are worse today than than they were in 1995 is either trying to gaslight you, or doesn't consider the experience of the LGBT community to be as equally valuable as everyone else.
I also noticed that when Lemmy links do appear it's often to a random federated instance, not the original source.
