The events of Star Trek haven't taken place yet, but The Historical Documents aired long before that. Presumably some kind of time vortex brought them to us.

 

I highly recommend it, short and sweet and action packed. It felt very much like something from the Twilight Zone. I would have never guessed it was the same person who wrote the sensitive teenage Klingon episode (which is also maybe my favorite from Academy).

Yes! We have that too. It's so addicting to get sucked into every time I come across it.

To be fair, the list was made for the 57th anniversary of Trek three years ago.

Data's Day is the episode I usually recommend people use to introduce TNG to newbies since Data literally goes around and introduces the crew. I'm shocked it wasn't on Variety's list!

[–] Corgana@startrek.website 3 points 1 month ago

Great example! I had forgotten that one. I guess that's a sign it's time for a Voyager rewatch.

 

I was reading this list and after I calmed my rage (Because real fans would have a top 47...) I became curious to hear what other episodes might make a personal list.

You don't need to give a detailed rationale, I'm curious to know what episodes NOT on the linked list do you just kinda... Think Are Neat 🫴🥔?

I'll start with some of mine:

  • TOS - The Cloud Minders
  • TNG - Timescape
  • DS9 - The Magnificent Ferengi (how this one is not on the list I have no idea)

They're just neat!

Absolutely Amazing work here. Tesseract should strongly be considered as a default UX.

I think the current methodology skews the data; consider that an instance federated with say, Hexbear, is probably going to have significantly more individual and community bans than an instance who only made 5-6 bans before recognizing the pattern and blocking the instance.

If the goal of this study is to see which places most aggressively moderate their content, you're actually getting somewhat of the reverse.

Wow this looks incredible

Very interesting stuff! Defederations should count as a ban of all instance users, imo.

Looking forward to the comments saying this true but good, actually.

 

Here's a TechCrunch article on the topic too.

First of all I love this idea, especially for nonprofits, universities and governments.

My biggest question is how moderation will work. The "point" of federation is that each instance can moderate their own way, but presumably the paid moderation will be in the style of mastodon.social, which isn't bad, but not exactly in the spirit of the Fediverse.
