Mods on the Star Trek communities on StarTrek.world will delete (and ban you) for even the slightest negative opinion about the show Star Trek Discovery. Even if you say that you dislike the show, or that you think the writing is sub-par, or anything slightly minor and inoffensive, poof! Your comment is gone, and you’re banned.

It’s not a rule in the sidebar, which is most frustrating, too. All you get is “not constructive”, even though there are plenty of complaints about other things, some pretty abrasive. But one unadoring word about Discovery, and you and your comment vanish without warning.

That's why I unsubbed from r/startrek on Reddit. I wasn't banned but I've seen many threads deleted that had genuine criticism of Discovery.

I didn't stick around long enough to see if they behaved the same way with Picard, but my guess is yes.

Check it: !startrek@lemmy.ml

it’s not a new community, but I just joined the mod team and I’ve updated the community guidelines in this Community Update post. It’s more permissive and, I think, much more reasonable and transparent. Coe on over, and help revitalize the community!

Live long and prosper! 🖖
