Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

To be fair I'm a lesbian so I def don't mind the boobs lol, but yeah it's a bit too frequent for my feed, haha.

What also helps is being on an instance that is explicitly affirming and welcoming to gals and queers. I often tongue-in-cheekishly use queer and furry presence as a canary. They tend to be super chill and whenever they're in some space, it's often a sign for me that it's welcoming.


The instance is important, because some defederate with a lot of the bad stuff by default. So that helps.

Another thing is PieFed, they have some anti-authoritarian features baked in, which is handy. Though I'm not a fan of the "often low score comments = comment not visible" element, that reminds me too much of Reddit.

Whether one chooses Lemmy, PieFed, or Kbin, all are valid in the long end - they're all part of the fediverse, that's the important one. It boils down to preferences.

It's hard to parse through the difference in instances when first joining lemmy tbh. I ended up creating my first account on world and it was really off-putting. Lemmy.today is a little closer to what I'm comfortable with and it's being hosted in a state that I consider a good neighbor, so I've stuck around so far.

Definitely have considered making an account on blahaj.zone

Similar sentiment here as a bi woman hahah

That'll just be a community that's visited on its own ;)
