We got a Q civil war but never a Borg one. What a lost opportunity to shake things up for the franchise.

Never say never. Maybe in some future Trek series.
I wonder how much of Starfleet was actually assimilated. Could Starfleet be even 10% at ages 25ish and below? I'd say the vast majority of Starfleet we've seen is 25 and over. And with human life expectancy being so high in the 25th century, I'd imagine there are not a small number of active duty officers in their 70s and 80s. Starfleet Academy would be overrun with Borg, but would the rest of the fleet?
That we know of.
True. OTOH the Borg apparently spent millenia in relatively small section of the Delta Quadrant not really bothering anyone. Something caused them to expand rapidly. Maybe all these events got them to nope back home.
They would have been better off not telling him what he was and maybe Picard would have been better of never receiving Beverly's call, but I believe a part of him longed to join the collective and I think he would have eventually ended up there no matter what. Once he found out what he was his instinct was to go to the Queen. She had been calling for him and with his DNA he would have eventually answered that call. That's my take anywa.
Like...a transmission from a far off section of the galaxy about a vulnerable world and region to invade and assimilate?
We already saw it happen during TNG when Hugh’s ship got cut off after his personalization started spreading out, and the Admonition would cause a lot more interference than simple individuality (which the Borg already knew how to suppress when assimilating people for the first time).
I always wonder how things happened in-universe. So Odo contacted Worf and told him a rogue group of changelings was infiltrating Starfleet. What did Worf do..it doesn't seem like he tried to warn anyone in Starfleet ot do much about it (maybe besides Ro). Just told Ro and then hired Raffi to find out what was stolen from Daystrom..
Jurati’s group will still be out there
Odo didn’t say they infiltrated Starfleet
oh nvm, I know what you mean.
maybe but they were already expanding deep into their own quadrant, as well. It was just a side thing I had always hoped they'd explore. I always thought Borg were pretty interesting as a species, and not just bad-guys of the week.
Maybe just that a rogue group was planning something against Starfleet then right? Considering how long ago the changeling plan would have to have been put in place (to find and work with the Borg, impersonate the right people, implement the plan to link all the ships) then did Odo tell Worf about it a "long time ago?" Presumably Odo would warn Worf right away. What did Worf do with that intel?
"Wait, did Will even have surviving family? Matt died inside the Planet Killer.
Ah, not like it matters. File the log entry. I need to eat some lunch."

the D is built for automation though, it’s much more advanced than the original enterprise.
except that it’s Geordi to pilot the ship out of space dock. It’s as if they forgot that in the 24th century the starboard station is ops and helm and navigation are the same thing.
If Will really was the ensign decker on Discovery, then that's another whole chunk of his life expunged off the records.
"I offer my services as Science Officer."
"If our Executive Officer has no objections...?"
"Of course not. I'm aware of Mister Spock's qualifications. Actually we met briefly on the Discov.. at a Disco. I knew his sist.. his systemic approach to discovering things. I'm not getting off this ship, am I?"
Starfleet dissapeared him.
actually it was pretty clear that they never met (or at least never had a conversation), what with 7 asking him about having returned totally human. They knew each other by game, obviously, which is no surprise.
There was also a cube on LDS that seemed to be up and running in 2380.
That was already a plot point on TNG, with the virus they wanted to implant in Hugh and with what his individuality did to the Borg vessel he was on.
