Essentially blaming people expressing support for trans people for the right wing culture war focus on trans people is definitely a bit more than just saying you’re fine with trans people doing what they want. Stop being so dishonest about what people were pissed at you for. You know it wasn’t a “blatantly pro trans comment”
I liked to check in on r/popheads from time to time on reddit because I’m into pop music, and there’s /c/[email protected], which doesn’t seem to have that many users so I’d like to see that grow
My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...
Strongly agree. Mastodon is alright and I use it a little, but the twitter-type format never really worked for me. I feel like when I have to follow individual people I usually end up either following no one or being forced to follow people who post things that interest me sometimes but a lot of the time post things that really don’t. Following particular topics or threads just seems much more natural to me; I can look at exactly what interests me and nothing more.

Does that really make it totally apolitical though?. Like obviously it’s not inherently attached to a wide reaching political ideology, but it still is political in the same way that any free software is kind of political.
Like they’re objectively pretty useful but I find the experience of using one to just kinda suck and I avoid it as much as I can. I’d much much rather use a laptop or ideally my desktop if that’s at all possible. No idea how some people manage so much time using their phones

Reddit refugees, has your favorite sub migrated already?
I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already....
I like this significantly better than Mastodon
