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.

Hey all!

As you can see we've moved house to !womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone If your account isnt on piefed youll see old posts in the old comm, and new in the new. If youre on piefed you can see old in the new. You can get help at !piefed_help@piefed.social you can access it no matter what instance you're from. On jerboa I can't see much atm but interstellar shows it all 🤷‍♀️

In short, we'd had enough of members being upset by the Manosphere jumping in and being nasty. Advantages of blahaj are...

  1. There's no downvoting, so people can't be harassed by downvote.
  2. There's really heavy moderating, blahaj pre-emptively bans known trolls and has zero tolerance on discrimination.
  3. Ada is fantastically supportive and really cares about creating a safe space.
  4. With piefed we can transfer the comm.

Apologies for not putting it to a vote or giving you the heads up. I didn't want to give the Manosphere a chance to cause issues before we went, or try to scupper the move altogether.

There are a couple of posts that vanished in the move and there's likely to be teething problems. But I'm feeling good about there being less stress long term. Just want to say a huge heartfelt thanks to Ada for all her hard work during the move! Ada you've been amazing 👏 🤩 ❤️

Haha should have thought thanks mate

No worries, I imagine you're spending enough time and energy on this platform already :P

[–] LadyButterfly@lazysoci.al 5 points 1 day ago

Yep been a bit stressful today! Adas been an angel and everyone's been really supportive which is great

This is still showing up for me on lazy.soci.al, is that intended? I went looking for the new link and I’m now subscribed, but I’d also suggest putting the new link in every post on the old side for a while.

Also, can someone explain Piefed and Lemmy and how they integrate? I use Voyager which I like a lot but I don’t think it works with Piefed directly yet (or at all?).

You legend! Massively useful

[–] LadyButterfly@lazysoci.al 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey proud blond! Yes it's deliberate so people could deffo see it. The lazysoci.al comm is locked down but people can still comment on posts, good idea re adding the link I'll start doing that.

I checked with Ada and the main apps (voyager, jerboa etc) don't work well with piefed. This should change soon. In the meantime there's a piefed app that showed at the bottom of the screen when I logged into my piefedblahaj account. It works well.

Tech stuff I've no clue and Dandelion is off for a few days. Apologies but best asking !piefed_help@piefed.social cos I'm clueless with tech.

[–] LadyButterfly@lazysoci.al 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Been a stressful day so I really appreciate that thanks 😊

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hey proud I spoke to Ada if your account isnt on piefed you'll see old posts in the old comm, and new in the new. If youre on piefed you can see old in the new.
