To be honest, we’re actually a month over. The community opened at the beginning of January of 2024. I just totally forgot and didn’t notice! Only did now because I was grabbing the link to that callout post I made and realized that it was posted on February 14th, 2024.

In that year we’re averaging 1.2k viewers of the community per day! Adds up too considering we have 4.13k subscribers that have come together to put out 3.5k posts and 51k comments! Holy shit! That’s insane!

When I and the other mods decided to open this community together we had hoped it would become a popular place for people to relax and share a love of Star Trek. I think it is safe to say that none of us anticipated the size that it would turn out to be in such a short period of time.

You guys are the backbone of the community and the backbone of Lemmy in general. Dedicated as shit users who keep trucking and planting seeds in this fantastic garden. Congratulations. You’re all Boothby’s. Just as wise and as adorable. I love all you petaQs!

Thank you for all you do and the love you pour into the community. Best userbase anyone could ask for <3

          I wish PieFed had a Preview feature - it is so much better than Lemmy in so many ways, yet so much worse than others…

          Anyway I already ninja edited it, so uh… what could you possibly be talking about there…? 😉

          Also, don’t let this… distract you or anything like that!

        As long as you are doing that Boimler booty shake, I’ll accept.

      I’m not a huge Trekkie, but I dig the vibe
