A prominent /c/Risa shitposter accused the mods of transphobia, loudly quit Risa and started their own meme community (and later deleted the comments after any evidence of transphobia failed to materialize).

Around the same time, a Risa mod removed some particularly low-effort posts despite Risa having "no rules", which upset some users and so they fled to the other guys' meme community.

Now there are two Star Trek themed meme communities.

Stamets. He actually banned me from the new place after posting a dumb meme he just didn't like (said I was "ban evading"). Did not know about him crying transphobia but it doesn't surprise me, the person has a serious temper issue.

EDIT I forgot he also retroactively removed two AI shitposts posts I made after writing a rule about it (yet didnt remove his own)
