well, there goes 75% of shitposts on lemmy.
Also a vital support network for LGBT+ people, I guess?
Don't worry, we're back again :)
Mhm and the instance where the only women's community is hosted :(
Our piefed instance (which hosts our remaining communities) should be back up soon!
Thank you!!
i know this isn't my place as a cis white dude, but can anarchist.nexus be a resource for a women's space? i've been looking for gaps in the threadiverse we could nurture and foster. my #1 concern lately with the makeup of the hegemony of the threadiverse lately has been:
my commitment to you as a cis white dude admin would be to stay the fuck out of the way of moderators looking to host a women's issues community here, within reason. obviously it wouldn't be okay to break instance rules against bigotry and such, but i can offer my commitment to shutting my mouth and knowing my role
For what it's worth, I absolutely want to see duplicate communities across multiple instances. Even if it's a backup community, folks shouldn't be left without a space if an instance goes offline, or if an admin goes rogue. I want to see more communities for vulnerable folk across more instances.
I wish there were more queer first instances too, and hopefully, this incident pushes someone in to spinning one up!
i know one person who's interesting in hosting some queer focused fediverse infrastructure, however they wants no part of the threadiverse since they considers reddit and reddit-alikes to be intrinsically prone to toxicity
There used to be a women's space on slrpnk.net (although a bit unfortunately named after a controversial Reddit community), but we could never really find women willing to moderate it longer term and the amount of dudes showing up with trollish comments became a bit too much for us admins to handle.
The mods in womensstuff work really, really hard.
Maybe! LadyButterfly is the mod of the womensstuff community and she does a great job, maybe we can get this info to her.
I really appreciate your acknowledgement of some of the issues with the diversity in the threadiverse. And appreciate your support <3
@LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone , when your instance is online again let's have a discussion about what resources i can make available to you that will center your community's needs without someone like me colonizing the discussion.
(unless i have the wrong ladybutterfly, then my apologies)
That’s her :)
