This place has roughly 3,000 people and was intended to be an entire replacement for DaystromInstitute and StarTrek as they were going dark indefinitely. Well, within 4 days the moderators have walked back those statements and opened both subreddits up. I see no incentive for people to come to this website now and while a few may come here in the future, most people will go to r/startrek with 600,000 people.
Whether the original subreddit is reopened or not, there are going to be plenty of people that don’t want to go back to reddit, or never were over at reddit in the first place. It’s possible this one will die off, but hopefully it won’t and will stay its own thing, regardless of the status of the subreddit…
I’m sticking around here, but then I wasn’t on /r/startrek to begin with
People like you are a tremendous potential audience - there are plenty of fans who weren’t on Reddit.
Tell your friends!
Welcome to the community. We are glad to have you!
Me too!
What’s funny is I only found out about this place from the r/squaredcircle discord (the subreddit is still down at the moment, but word from the mods over there is that spez’s ghouls are threatening to do whatever it takes to re-open subreddits), so people are spreading the word out there in all sorts of places
