Reddit Sub Ban Wave
Reddit Sub Ban Wave
Reddit just banned a ton of LGBTQ+ and NSFW subs, I imagine a bunch of people will be heading this way!
Can we not advertise lemmy.world this time? The entire point is to decentralize so ban waves like this don't affect too many people.
Hello! I'm new to Lemmy, originally during the Reddit exodus when 3rd party apps got shafted (RIP Apollo) I joined kbin but the dev has since gone dark and I unfortunately found myself back on reddit.
Im trans and with this whole NSFW ban and trans subreddits getting banned I'm back.
Does anyone know any good trans specific communities (what are these called here? Sublemmies?) on Lemmy? They don't have to be specific to the lemm.ee instance!
TIA
The two biggest spaces for trans users are lemmy.blahaj.zone and hexbear.net, hexbear is larger but is explicitly Communist/Anarchist, while blahaj is more liberal/progressive.
You can find communities here. Check out the communities on lemmy.blahaj.zone or pawb.social . You might find what you're looking for there.
Get Voyager, it’s an app like Apollo was for Reddit.
It has a pretty good community search function that works across instances. You’ll find a lot doing it that way.
Im replying from Voyager now and this just straight up feels and looks almost exactly like I remember Apollo. I could cry tears of joy 🥲
Didn’t go back to reddit and am not trans but I just wanted say, otherwise your journey has been exactly the same as mine! From Kbin to lemm.ee and RIP apollo indeed. There’s a lot of trans friendly comms and instances in general. 196 may be a familiar name and the blahaj instance in general seems trans friendly. Depends on what type of comms you’re looking for. Check out voyager if you haven’t already, very reminiscent of Apollo. Welcome back.
Ill have to check out voyager! I'm using Sync at the moment since I recognized the name. Thank you for the recommendation!
Anarchist/socialist communities are always pro trans. I joined slrpnk.net because it's got those as well as a focus on sustainable living. Your choice of instance doesn't impact your feed too much.
I just got banned from there for the last fuxking time, over the most benign comment, so yeh im making this my new home, feels weird but ill get used to it.
Check out the mobile clients that also moved over last time. Boost and Sync are great.
Welcome!
Glad you made it. It’s a lovely community we’re creating. And we need everyone’s input to make it happen inclusively.
Welcome!
Why I'm coming over here 18 years on reddit and they have pissed me off that badly
Welcome
Me today!
if they even are aware of Lemmy. from what I've read, Reddit is quick to delete any mentions of it
Tell your friends to tell everyone you know who's LGBT I posted in all my places to tell them all we have lemmy witch is far better. Reddit and block it but can't block others from spreading the Lemmy word
Resolved because it was a "bug". lol. Most people probably won't switch.
Every reddit user should consider r/redditseppuku
Other than just knowing that things continue to decline (everywhere), who cares? I guess I do, cause I'm taking the time to comment. But it's all downhill, everywhere, from here.
