    well, there goes 75% of shitposts on lemmy.

    Also a vital support network for LGBT+ people, I guess?

        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:

        • eurocentricism
        • authoritarianism by default
        • black and white thinking (see above)
        • unchecked and unchallenged mysoginy

        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!

          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

            @[email protected] , 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)
