TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I don't have any coding skills to offer, but I'd be happy to share meme making tips and which tools I like using. I'm always curious to hear other people's processes too.
Depending on how it all shakes out, this technically shouldn't be an issue from a content contribution perspective; I'm actually looking at lightweight solutions that render from markdown, which we all use to post and comment on Lemmy (and the Bad Place). But you'd likely have to sign into a code repo, set up ssh keys, and do the things developers do, and that's not everyone's cup o'tea. If this changes and if I do happen to find an ideal platform where you can just login in your browser and start editing, I'll let you know!
@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world there's been some movement on the meme-making site, and plans have changed; Jawa21 recommended a wiki-based solution that fits the bill, so I'm gonna go with that. I'll send you a DM in a minute.
