USS Voyager (eventually) on Picard?

Life on Earth didn't even start due to the antitime anomaly.
Or it was just Q being theatrical while teasing Picard.
Two problems with that: Picard just made nothing happen (even if it took heroic effort), and Starfleet wouldn't have been much interested in giving this any publicity. VOY in contrast was on the telly, with interesting faces (and bodies!), while the Dominion War sort of touched everybody, too.
Now, if Picard flooded the Sol system with pointy-eared refugees, his face would be remembered, too (quite possibly along with his home address), even after a full generation. But nothing from TNG proper should stick, except as footnotes to later and more relevant developments.

He also makes great speeches.
Or if Picard didn't solve the mystery there wouldn't be life on Earth.
Wasn't that the point?
He did prevent the antitime anomaly with the warp bubble thingy.
The anomaly would have apparently prevented life to evolve on Earth so I guess he did something right.
Are you talking about the guy who created the anomaly in the first place (via the warp core breach of the Pasteur)?
In the end, he got to play hero after Data realized the paradox first - and also presented the solution to Picard - but I'm not sure whether Jean-Luc would put that on his resume.

Picard could not have caused the anomaly if he wasn't been thrown through time. He didn't start it all.
Wasn't Picard the first to speak about the anomaly as something that went back in time? After he described it, Data said he was describing a paradox.
Also, Pasteur warp core breach didn't start the anomaly, it was the tachyon pulses from different time periods.
We just have Q's word for that.
I hope Voyager still has bio-neural gel packs and so do other starships. Since this is the first fully post-Voyager series, we should hear more about them.
Voyager will not appear on Picard, it would make absolutely no sense. Using Voyager characters is one thing, Seven obviously works as part of a story involving borg and/or former borg drones but the ship? No way, there's no conceivable story that would require them to use Voyager specifically, the only reason to bring her back would be nostalgia but Picard has zero connection to Voyager.
If they go the nostalgia route I think it's more likely we see another Galaxy class ship, givimg them an excuse to recreate the old sets (with an updated look most likely, the bridge wouldn't be beige anymore) where Picard would probably feel at home and out of place at the same time. The Enterprise E wouldn't have the same effect, while Picard spend years there in universe the audience only saw it three times.

The cheese evolved and destroyed them all. Now all starships run on an intricate system of pulleys.
Yeah, I'll believe Q on that one...
Who ya gonna call? Borgbusters!
He did save Earth from two Borg invasions and a Reman attack, though.
But… the Borg don’t respond very well to Federation principles as applied to negotiations towards lasting peace. Die-Hard Picard could handle them, sure, but one might just as well send Janeway instead.
Only one Borg invasion. Riker saved the day in TBOBW.
In both cases it was Picard who provided the crucial day-saving intel, though.
Will all due respect to Picard, but Janeway single handedly destroyed the Borg collective (if you believe that Borg are completely gone as part of the Picard narrative)
With Orange Is The New Black finally done, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Red, I mean Janeway, made atleast a small cameo in Picard
Thank you for clearing everything up with that.
