Out of curiosity... why not alt.startrek?

Other than the "not a lot is happening there now", but there's some activity.

The most recent posts on the server I'm on:

    The Lower Decks crossover to live action in Strange New Worlds
    Star Trek Discovery Canceled
    ‘Galaxy Quest’ TV Series in Early  Development at Paramount+
    Jack Crusher is how old?
    Star Trek The Lower Decks S03E09 was everything I wanted.
    (spam - into the kill file that poster went)
    TOS Film marathon
    (crossposted trolling - more kill file material)
    Captain Burnham mob/cops/big city episodes (Star Trek Discovery)
    (crossposted trolling - figured out how to do more complicated rules - "cross posted to more than 3 groups and newsgroups match \.politics\." with this reader)
    (crossposted trolling - even more kill file material)
    Ode to Spot. (this post is from 2012)
    When will the new Star Trek merge with the Twilight movies? (this post is from (2011)
