It’s really poorly managed and run by the same people who run the reddit subreddit. They don’t have a good track record on moderating and frequently ban anyone posting criticism.
Unlike that site, we accept all Star Trek fans, both old and Nu.
Any more detail on that? I hang out there and haven’t had or seen any trouble.
I’ve been critical and gotten pushback from the admin (I was criticising Discovery, as you might imagine), but so long as I could explain my opinion and do so politely there didn’t seem to be an issue at all, and I don’t think that’s an unreasonable standard.
If a different moderation policy is what you’re offering here … could you elaborate on that?
This has been going on for some time and trying to be kept quiet by the mods/admins of that instance
It’s the same mods that run the reddit subreddit. That says all you need to know.
It seems well managed to me. I get that one may not like their decisions, but I don’t think that’s the same thing as being poorly managed.
And, like, it’s their website. They can choose what content they host there however they like. And I welcome a space where people who don’t want to abide by their choices can keep doing their thing.
I would say it is poorly managed for the fact that their rules and community standards are not clearly outlined. They ban for reasons not listed in their rules. For a community this large, there needs to be some sort of outlined expectations. It’s fairly apparent they are more interested in moderating the subreddit and this Lemmy community is downstream of that in their minds. Expecting us to just magically know the subreddit standards without being listed out is textbook bad management.
