Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

so TNG and DS9 were awful and terrible or something?
What, you weren't there for the incessant "Kirk is better than Picard" bickering that basically formed the backbone of the early Internet circa 1990?
Let’s go all the way back to TMP with people indignant about how the Klingons looked. And somehow that got around before there was an internet to go crying to.
"That is not discussed with outsiders."
No, what are you, like 70?
You'll never wring it out of me, sonny boy.
There were people at the time who certainly thought so.
true. there always are.
i think that's quite different from Disney and Paramount, on a production level, trying very hard to overproduce both franchises and try very hard to pander to everyone all at once. Which we know is a surefire way to crash them.
I guess at least we got Andor though. It's not all terrible, but it's mostly pretty bad because they really aren't like letting creative people do creative things with the franchises and tell compelling stories.
