Every single large server in this federation has at least one Star Trek community. There is even an entire server dedicated to Star Trek.

Not only that, these communities are some of the most active I’ve ever seen. There is no other franchise I know of that dominates the federation as much as Star Trek does.

So, what’s the correlation with Lemmy and Star Trek? Why not other sci-fi series? Please, are there any connections?? Is this all coincidental?

    I guess federated social networks share a similarity with the United Federation Of Planets: They are driven and maintained by like minded idealistic people. They share a vision of what the future could be.

    And have you seen Patrick Steward as Picard? Yes the first two seasons of “The Next Generation” are mostly kinda cringe but episodes like “Measure of a man” (S 2 E9) or “Chain of Command” aka “there are 4 lights!” (S 6 E10/11) really make you think about ethics, philosophy and poltics.

    Babylon 5 had similar episodes but not the density and quality imo (also Vulcans >> Minbari).

    In short there is no comparable show out there. If you found anything i said appealing, give it a try. Though maybe don’t watch chronologically. The original series is wild. I’d start with TNG or Voyager.
