is there a fediverse version of /r/abrathatfits ?
There are not enough women in the fediverse to maintain femme-centric communities.
Most of the ones I used to be subscribed to shut down due to being abandoned/unmodded. And they turned out that way because of harassment.
It's a huge issue that no one will address. Mostly because they will be harassed.
It sucks.
Or maybe they rather mask a man / gender neutral. Internet is not a friendly place to have girl oriented conversations. I made the mistake to be open about my gender with this account and the odacity of people is astonishing.
That's what I mean.
And it should not be this way.
The fediverse vehemently defends & will happily accommodate trans folk. That's fantastic! But they'll be openly hostile to cis women?
It's baffling.
Makes me think that Lemmy is not actually as progressive as they are always claiming to be.
