/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

To be honest, my anecdotal experience is that any feedback with this sort of nonsense is removed from the data set. It's pretty easy to spot and right or wrong, it would be considered noise or an outlier at best.
I'm certain it didn't get read, just as I'm certain any negative feedback gets similarly binned. It was far more catharsis for me than any misguided belief that anyone would see or even (lol) act to make their product better.
That's why you should throw in only one or two snide remarks (suggesting commit seppuku) to ensure that you provide them professional criticism that makes it past the filters to a human, and then carefully insult the human.
Unhelpful or unconstructive feedback? That is almost always filtered out before it ever sees the eyes of anybody important or anybody that could do anything about it.
Negative feedback, but which is actionable or actually insightful? More often that not (again in my anecdotal experience), that's actually given some weight.
If you believe that, I have some bridges to sell you.
Fwiw we have a feature that lets people type out a message on our website and it shows up immediately and directly in our slack channel. I work for a major tech company you've for sure heard of
