Lemmy isn't what I expected but I love this place

I haven't seen 1 star trek meme

Vespair , 4 months ago

Hey now, that's unfair. It's Star Trek references, Linux memes, and disingenuous leftist in-fighting!

UnrepententProcrastinator , 4 months ago

You're such a fake leftist.

Holzkohlen , 4 months ago

Just as Tim Berners-Lee intended 👃

Rentlar , 4 months ago

Aww. Great meme. I do my part and try to post pictures in !Vancouver and !Toronto every few days.

Once I'm done posting all my pictures, in a few months, I will probably repost them to a pictures community on Lemmy for more people to see.

setsneedtofeed , 4 months ago

Hey uhhhh you know Battletech and Warhammer are both pretty cool. They’re kinda like Star Trek (except the opposite).

Anyways.

!battletech

!warhammer40k

TheDeepState , 4 months ago

This is truest thing I’ve seen on Lemmy.

UPGRAYEDD , 4 months ago

Love the star trek memes. And like all things linux, i understand like 20% and the rest goes over my head

SuspiciousUser , 4 months ago

I have RSS feeds for the top Reddit and Lemmy posts and Lemmy always has the best memes.

MargotRobbie , 4 months ago

And nobody mentioned beans?

You can't have Lemmy without at least one reference to beans!

klemptor , 4 months ago

Yeah and also that time mizu wanted to skip pooping for 3 days

FlyingSquid , 4 months ago

That's normal for me right now. Hooray mystery illness.

klemptor , 4 months ago

Until you get your illness sorted out (and hopefully that's soon!), prune juice could help - after all, it is a warrior's drink!

FlyingSquid , 4 months ago

Thank you. I tried it. I can't stand the stuff. I've been drinking V8 though, so hopefully that will help.

EvokerKing , 4 months ago

" wait it's just people pushing weird politics and a bunch of nsfw stuff and even the posts that seem good have some weird secondary agenda and other weird shit"

setsneedtofeed , 4 months ago

I’ve been trying very hard to revive hobby/interest communities.

!star_wars

!battletech

!fallout

!warhammer40k

!tabletopminis

and even help out wth non-ulterior motives in communities

!americancivilwar

!fakehistoryporn

!forgottenweapons

I’d be thrilled if these take off more.

EvokerKing , 4 months ago

Nice

KpntAutismus , 4 months ago

that and communists, a lot of communists.

Ghostalmedia , 4 months ago

And not always the chill “I live on a commune and make shirts out of hemp” communists. We’re talking about the “let’s have an armed revolution” communists.

KpntAutismus , 4 months ago

and "if you don't boycot everything remotely connected to right-wingers you're a nazi" has happened to me more than once.

in the german communities you're also very likely to be heavily insulted if you express your enhusiasm for cars, letalone trying to explain why we can't switch everyone over to either public transportation or EVs.

Cowbee , 4 months ago

All 3 are leftist, based on rejecting individual ownership, and related to FOSS (tangentially in Star Trek's case), and all 3 are nerdy as hell. They have a lot in common under the hood.

FlyingSquid , 4 months ago

based on rejecting individual ownership

Corgana , 4 months ago

With startrek.website we'd hoped creating a Star Trek themed instance might encourage other ex-moderators to start topic-specific instances too, and it would kick off a flourishing of myriad communities run by devoted moderators, a Lemmyverse so diverse and inspiring that not even Reddit could further justify it's own existence in the presence of such an obviously superior system.

Instead it turned out "Star Trek and Linux" was enough to satisfy nearly everyone's tastes (both subtle and gross).

SnotFlickerman , 4 months ago

Nerds have always been easy to please.

Buffaloaf , 4 months ago

Bull. Shit. Have you never seen a debate on Star Wars or comic book characters?

conorab , 4 months ago

Hey! Easy to please, not agree with! 😁

TGhost , 4 months ago

This meme got the LW logo to represent Lemmy. We can understand why there is no more :-(

But in reality, there is dbzer0, blahaj, slrpnk, and more too

n0clue , 4 months ago

All of those sound like sketchy porn sites...

TGhost , 4 months ago

Dude, theses are the reals. No LW.

exocrinous , 4 months ago

There's also ttrpg.network

Psythik , 4 months ago

Shit like this is why I started using imgur alongside Lemmy. They're no better than reddit was, but I need my memes.

DAMunzy , 4 months ago

I use Arch, btw.

Corgana , 4 months ago

this?

hakunawazo , 4 months ago

Arch...? You mean Jonathan Archer. I understood this Star Trek reference.

DAMunzy , 4 months ago

Errrrrr... Exactly!

zloubida , 4 months ago

I mean… I could use Jonathan Archer.

Viking_Hippie , 4 months ago

Who couldn't use a Jonathan Archer once in a while?

..what were we talking about?

FlyingSquid , 4 months ago

Oh boy...

Yeah I tried a WSB themed instance. Lemmy really isn't set up to support this. Its a pretty critical issue with how its engineered and can't really be fixed in the current structure.

Shyfer , 4 months ago

I've been enjoying ttrpg.network but hopefully more rpg nerds come to this instance in time.

idunnololz , 4 months ago

It kinda sucks if you don't use Linux and don't watch Star Trek though :/

lugal , 4 months ago

Well, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few

x4740N , 4 months ago

I watch star trek but don't use Linux as a primary operating system due to it not meeting specific requirements of mine

histic , 4 months ago

just out of curiosity may I ask what those are

psud , 4 months ago

You sound ready to spring your "but you can do that in Linux" trap

Sarcasmo220 , 4 months ago

We all area ready. Lemmy is a minefield for that.

Squizzy , 4 months ago

Start watched TNG, I used to get an episode or 2 between work and gym and it was bliss. Wish I could watch it again for the first time.

The rest hasn't been as good, some highlights but nothing grabs me nearly as much.

someguy3 , 4 months ago

Start with season 3.

Squizzy , 4 months ago

I enjoyed the ramp up, it was DS9 I couldn't get into at all. Gave up a few episodes in. Haven't tried Voyager sequentially yet but I liked some episodes. Discovery sucked except for Isaacs. I liked SNW.

minibyte , 4 months ago

Picard?

Squizzy , 4 months ago

Muck, but I watched the clips where he met Q and Ryker.

xspurnx , 4 months ago

Oh, sorry to hear that. DS9 gets pretty good later on - especially the "middle" is great, testing out the limits of the world/starfleet ethics. I think it's my favorite trek... (second being TNG, watched that growing up). Maybe give DS9 another chance and just jump in somewhere after Season 1...

tigeruppercut , 4 months ago

Then go back to season 2. Then if you like that go back to season 1.

ohlaph , 4 months ago

What are you in to little buddy?

idunnololz , 4 months ago

Memes and league of legends. And gaming in general.

Shyfer , 4 months ago

!leagueoflegends
!league

Join the league communities and start discussions! They could use more conversation. I'm resuming after not playing in a long time myself, probably because I decided to watch LCS when someone told me that a team besides C9 or TL won last split.

It'll take me some time to catch up on all these changes, though lol. Hopefully the pro seasons resuming helps.

Ghostalmedia , 4 months ago

I once told Lemmy users that I liked MacOS. I still haven’t recovered from the beating.

idunnololz , 4 months ago

Lmao. I don't really care what OS people use. I'm not really passionate about any OS. I just use it as a medium to do things I enjoy so I'm really not interested in any OS talk about any operating system. I use all 3 OS daily pretty much (Linux, Mac and Windows).

FlyingSquid , 4 months ago

It's a personal choice and it doesn't really matter much.

i_love_FFT , 4 months ago

MacOS, you mean Unix with a wallpaper?
While Unix is not Linux, BSD is open source so it's nice!

KrapKake , 4 months ago

I won't beat you this time but I did laugh at your comment.

fakeman_pretendname , 4 months ago

You can fix both of those problems in the same evening :)
