I’ve noticed a number of memes already popping on this community. One thing I always valued about Reddit was that the larger communities were often able to clearly delineate which spaces were for different types of content, and I’d hate for that to get lost in the move to the Fediverse.

Could I suggest that, while people are still getting used to the new home of the communities that used to exist in the Star Trek subreddits, it might be helpful to distinguish between them with a simple sticky post on each community?

e.g. Something along the lines of:

!StarTrek is for Star Trek news and discussion.

!DaystromInstitute is for serious, in-depth discussion.

!Risa is for memes and shitposts.

Please help the mods by picking the right community to post in, and live long and prosper!

This would also have the benefit of continually publicising the existence of the smaller DaystromInstitute and Risa communities.

    Daystrom was one of my very favourite places to browse on Reddit - far smaller than the main Star Trek sub but a great example of how that didn’t matter when you had a well-engaged community and a dedicated team of moderators.
