Since nothing in this community is about technology we might as well talk about science fiction. (lemmy.world)

All the stories on the FP are about labor relations and corporate shenanigans. So anyway, do you like Star Trek or Star Wars better? Anybody still ike to read old school sci fi, for example I really love Poul Anderson's Polesotechnic League stories - the swashbuckling adventures of intersteller trador Nicholas van Rijn and his Solar Spice and Liquors company, David Falkayne, et al. Good old basic space opera.

I used to love Star Wars, but the movies kept not being that good.

They focus too heavily on one family and have not really built a world for people to live in.

I think the new TV shows are starting to do this, but I haven’t watched them too much.

I would really love Star Wars much more if the world building was a bit better.

The Mandalorian, Andor, and Skeleton Crew are all good IMO.

Yeah, I’ve heard good things about those. I need to make time for them.
