Other day I made a post about transphobia in the Fediverse and I crossposted to several communities, one of them was !fediverse@lemmy.zip. It seems the post I made attracted the attention of the mod and he decided to come over to this community and post transphobia apologia here. He was banned shortly afterwards. I would encourage people here to avoid that community, and any other communities he moderates. Since as a moderator he can easily exercise his power to silence dissenting views and to intimidate others. It’s not best to participate there.
I don’t know of many good ones that could be used instead, perhaps someone could start a fediverse community on lemmy.blahaj.zone, but that’s beside the point of the post. Main point is to share this information with the community so you can avoid using a community run by a known transphobe.
Does lemm.ee have any problems? I used it for a while last year, before I came across blahaj.zone, as a lighter-weight alternative to lemmy.world. Could be an alternative, but I don’t know if they’ve had any drama I missed.
Never heard of any drama or negativity coming out of there! Though I also don’t go looking for it
Well, they do host the main conservative community !conservative@lemm.ee
But same, haven’t heard of any drama surrounding them, and they do moderate bigotry
Don’t they have a conservative community there? Yeah, pass. They may not nearly have as many transphobes as .world but if they’re tolerant of conservative assholes, they might be in the near future.
