    I only mention Lemmy as a caution, like what to avoid, while I’m mentioning other fediverse social media…

    Because I’m a woman and most of the people I know who want social media alternatives are also women, and I’m not subjecting them to this shitshow. I like them too much to bring them here.

      Perhaps I am so conditioned to concealing my gender online that I haven’t experienced misogyny here, but I felt like most the community are feminists.

        There used to be, but it was mostly men commenting, and mostly men upvoting, which drowns out any actual women’s voices that may have been there.

        Pretty sure all the woman-focused subs have shut down.
