Reddit just banned a ton of LGBTQ+ and NSFW subs, I imagine a bunch of people will be heading this way!

They claim it’s an “accident” and unbanned a lot of them. Sure 🙄 They’re just testing how submissive their userbase are, lol

if it was an accident, that’s almost as bad: either way they’re testing or developed some tool that has grouped lgbt and adult content together

Probably some algorithm that they told "delete anything related to the topic ‘transgender’, and that algorithm took everything down that it remotely got a hold of, I would suspect

Yeah this, “bug” seems like insurance for when Musk starts attacking Xitter competitors. Now investors can be assured Reddit can ban every controversial subreddit in one sweep.

They’re making sure the system works for when they need to hit it for real. Just like all the other social media platforms that “accidentally” censored anything that wasn’t pro Trump.

They’re letting the gov know, they will comply, with a quick demo.

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.

Check out the mobile clients that also moved over last time. Boost and Sync are great.

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

That would be Lemmygrad.ml

So technically we’re second most tankiest

We’re just the most largest one.

If “tankie” means general leftist, ie Anarchists included, then maybe. If “tankie” means Marxist-Leninist, then that’s Lemmygrad.ml

Hello dear. I’m trans and Hexbear is pretty much my favorite place on the internet. Here’s a link to the current trans mega! https://hexbear.net/post/4407227

Lemmy.blahaj.zone or Hexbear.net (depending on your politics)

For the latter, a good community is

c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

(Note: yes, c/ means community or just comm for short)

There’s also the transgender community in Lemmy.ml

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.

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.
