How certain are we that Discovery went to THE future rather than A future? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Many times Star Trek has taken us to the future only to reset the status quo at the end of the story arc. Tapestry (but in reverse?), that time Voyager crashed in the ice, and all that.

How likely is it that Discovery went to a mutable future, just one of many, especially with the Temporal Cold War, Carl, Q, Trelane, Janeway, the HMS Bounty, and any number of other temporally active agents out there in time? How locked in is the 32nd Century?

Did you edit the title in sync by any chance?

Just fixed that bug...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I did not (that I can remember). But I did post this using Sync, between hotfixes I think.

Thanks for the great app work. Rock on!
