The people I'm talking about would struggle with Reddit, let alone Lemmy. To paraphrase Lt. Commander Nella Daren; 'You're more online than you think you are."

What would TNG's first season have if it was standalone and came out today

I can't believe nobody said Star Trek. In the 70s you had reruns of the original series and the animated series short run. TMP didn't come around until the end of the decade. I wasn't there, but I imagine a 70s trekky would be damn grateful to have all the Trek we have today and they'd probably even love Academy (All the older not chronically online fans I know rave about it).

Edit: regardless of your personal opinion on nu trek, the answer fits the question. A trek fan from the 70s would be blown away by having 13 series and 14 movies available to watch on demand, plus books, games, etc.

Also a good restatement of the comment I'm replying to, yes.

I haven't tried this yet myself, but it's a project I've been keeping a fairly anticipatory eye on: https://github.com/PhialsBasement/wine-adobe-installers/

Yeah, and I'm sure Elon makes nothing off of the daily bet on the number of times he'll tweet, too.

The entire mission is to seek out new life and new civilizations and establish relations with them! Countless times you've put your entire crew second to that mission, and yet here you are face to face with a 3 million year old intelligent being made of magnetic energy that has absorbed all the knowledge of other long dead civilizations, pleading with you for just some company, and you give it the cold shoulder. Heartbreaking.
