There’s [email protected] (for making fun of ignorant people). That’s the only one I’ve seen much of although just searching for “women” and filtering for communities on a preferred instance seems to be a good start.
The thing I missed most when switching over here is women’s spaces
Saaaaame. So much the same here. Which is another reason I’m such a pain in the ass when sexism is allowed here. Because I want to help build a space that welcomes women as well.
And it’s like, if we (humans, collectively) want to make our spaces welcoming and safe, then we (again, humans) need to actively police our spaces to enforce the kind of social norms that we want; community building takes work, after all.
But bloody hell, it’s exhausting when that typically just means that we (women) are expected to do a disproportionate amount of the emotional and social labour. Quelle surprise
In some ways, I hope so. There should be some second thinking happening before comments are posted, particularly those looking for a quick joke at the expense of a marginalized group.
: a process in which a poor area (as of a city) experiences an influx of middle-class or wealthy people who renovate and rebuild homes and businesses and which often results in an increase in property values and the displacement of earlier, usually poorer residents
Yeah I love it for feeling real, but I do miss the mid-late 10s reddit era, not the early reddit era.

There’s [email protected] and probably others.
EDIT: (fuck didn’t realize I was already here lollll need to pay more attention)
You know I’ve heard a lot about that place :p
Fr though I’d much rather this kind of people not knowing they’re here than the majority of what we get lol
That’s this place :)
Do you know of any others?

Is there going to be a gentrification that happens when forums get larger or attract more users?

Framing it as gentrification is interesting.
