Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

If you're going to do another alt insta, might as well try another fediverse analogue and get a Pixelfed. At least it's not Facebook who's going to add your new alt and its new alternate email to their profile of you, that will just kantoikan you eventually.
ETA: if you don't want to move, stop posting on main and just use stories and only post to your close friends filter. Or soft block ur mum so she unfollows you
Additional info on Pixelfed - upcoming features is tiered access to your posts; so a bit like fb flist, so if she ever finds u again, you can have real public posts and posts she'll never see
I see. Which community to join in pixelfed?
I would've recommended my instance which is metapixl.com but I'm also shopping around as I'm not sure if I want to stay there, but it's decent enough (having issues with the alt-text character limit but otherwise it's fine). The flagship is pixelfed.social which is huge now but they do get first round of stable releases, but regardless there's a list here https://pixelfed.fediverse.observer/list - filter by signups to yes. Most of them are general instances so other than the non-english one I don't think there's a problem to pick. ETA: oh wait! Check their abouts, some of them allow nsfw content (which shouldn't be a problem until u check local feed)
ETA: I would recommend metapixl.com regardless because they offer the cushiest amount (max 20 pix; caption length is max 2k characters; most others will put about 5 pix with max caption of 500 chars)
