I was about to say I’d like to see something similar to Ask Science Fiction, but with more easy-going mods. It’s fine for the sub to focus on the in-universe perspective while still allowing an out-of-universe comments where they enhance the discussion.
By the way, there is a Daystrom Institute: https://startrek.website/c/daystrominstitute
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !daystrominstitute@startrek.website
I always liked the idea of top-level comments being exclusively in-universe, and out-of-universe comments have to be replies to other comments!
That would be better. But I don’t think there needs to be a rule at all. Some questions are more suited to Watsonian answers, some to Doylist answers, and users are perfectly capable of judging which is which for themselves. The only rule that was needed was, perhaps, a rule against low-effort responses of either sort.
