It was all getting spoiled for me in social media anyway.
I thankfully haven’t seen any spoilers for anything since moving to Lemmy… on other sites it’s silly easy to accidentally run into a spoilers for anything remotely popular 😭
Unless you follow ST communities here… then oops I guess spoilers are in your feed for each episode 😳
And you know what? It makes sense. A big part of making a moment of a media launch is to get like-minded people talking about it. It’s harder now that media is largely on-demand, so it’s great to have a place to go for the discussion afterwards.
Which is why staggered, inconsistent launches make no damn sense in the 21st century. When pirates can deliver a way to join that hype moment and you can’t, for the content you’re creating on the service your followers are already paying for you have entirely missed the point.
I pretty much only look at All and somehow like a good third of my feed is Star Trek stuff. Mostly memes, and mosty TNG/DS9.
I somewhat enjoy it because I’m not really a big trek fan and it reminds me what it feels like to not be “targeted” by an ad. But ironically, it had the effect of me starting to put on TNG at night.
