Every single large server in this federation has at least one Star Trek community. There is even an entire server dedicated to Star Trek.

Not only that, these communities are some of the most active I've ever seen. There is no other franchise I know of that dominates the federation as much as Star Trek does.

So, what's the correlation with Lemmy and Star Trek? Why not other sci-fi series? Please, are there any connections?? Is this all coincidental?

Resistance is futile.

Also didnโ€™t the two big subreddits permanently shut down and move to the fediverse?

Because Star Wars destroyed their own Empire

C'mon you gotta love the original Star Trek series at the very least. I mean it was a milestone and it's still my favorite of all the Treks out there.

The fact that it has so many communities (for Trek in general) shows that it really resonates with people across the board. I can't think of many other shows that have achieved that. Its the mix of science fiction and adventure with very human emotions and problems that make it so appealing, I think.

Lemmy was built by and for people who like Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism morality plays.

Because it's the best space anime that's why besides star begins with s and lemmy with l so if we take the two you have ls which is a command on GNU/Linux and other Unix like operating systems that shows the current place contents so you can literally see for yourself what you have to share as Commons thus you see when combined they do magic together by implementing communism but you know what the real is liberalism and political conservatism1111!! hahahaha wooowwwwwww
