If you are looking for a more secure and safe trans space, we suggest you visit https://hexbear.net/c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns. While we will try our best, lemmy.ml/c/transgender is far more open to the fediverse, and also to trolls.

An admin of this instance, Nutomic, is a transphobe and has no right to be able to ban trans people from this community. (lemmy.ml)

I'm calling for https://lemmy.ml/u/[email protected], the most prolific user of the transgender comm here on lemmy.ml, to be immediately unbanned and nutomic to be removed as admin. It is good and correct to leak the DMs of transphobes.

edit: you can find more info from kristinas post here and beavers post here

edit 2: proof, also beaver was banned from the whole instance modlong

edit 3: For trans people looking for a safer instance, I suggest Hexbear. They have a very active trans user base and are extremely supportive.

I just think it's sort of interesting that this particular event is what has clued some people into the fact that a not insignificant portion of the online leftist community views LGBT issues in the context of this geopolitical campism. These are the same attitudes which cause some in the community to routinely look past other notable anti-LGBT groups on the international stage, simply because they stand in opposition to bigger bads. These attitudes have never been hidden, and I have always thought they were expressed and supported with a startling lack of nuance and consideration for the people who are actually injured by them.

Honestly, just get out of .Ml and let it fade the way hexbear has

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

It is not them who should fade away

It is ye

Yer ilk has single-handedly redditized the spirit of true Lemmy, you {redacted}, may you burn in hell!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I wouldn't call hexbear faded in the slightest. You may have them hidden/blocked/whatever to that effect

Hexbear, Lemmygrad, and Lemmy.Ml have about as many MAU between the three of them as lemm.ee does on its own. Lemmy.world is about five times lemm.ee.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

MAUs is a decent measure, but last I know (admittedly old data) Hexbear had quite the outsized post/comment rate for their users compared to other instances. I don't know if the higher MAU count on the other instances counterbalance that at this point, but I think that's at least worth something in determining the size of their presence on the fediverse

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah the data is interesting. Each individual in hexbear posts a lot more than your standard user, but they almost exclusively post to hexbear. Other instances bleed more into the broader fediverse and interact with each other more frequently.
