Reddit just banned a ton of LGBTQ+ and NSFW subs, I imagine a bunch of people will be heading this way!

    Hello! I’m new to Lemmy, originally during the Reddit exodus when 3rd party apps got shafted (RIP Apollo) I joined kbin but the dev has since gone dark and I unfortunately found myself back on reddit.

    Im trans and with this whole NSFW ban and trans subreddits getting banned I’m back.

    Does anyone know any good trans specific communities (what are these called here? Sublemmies?) on Lemmy? They don’t have to be specific to the lemm.ee instance!

    TIA

      The two biggest spaces for trans users are lemmy.blahaj.zone and hexbear.net, hexbear is larger but is explicitly Communist/Anarchist, while blahaj is more liberal/progressive.

      You can find communities here. Check out the communities on lemmy.blahaj.zone or pawb.social . You might find what you’re looking for there.

      Get Voyager, it’s an app like Apollo was for Reddit.

      It has a pretty good community search function that works across instances. You’ll find a lot doing it that way.

        Im replying from Voyager now and this just straight up feels and looks almost exactly like I remember Apollo. I could cry tears of joy 🥲

      Anarchist/socialist communities are always pro trans. I joined slrpnk.net because it’s got those as well as a focus on sustainable living. Your choice of instance doesn’t impact your feed too much.

      Didn’t go back to reddit and am not trans but I just wanted say, otherwise your journey has been exactly the same as mine! From Kbin to lemm.ee and RIP apollo indeed. There’s a lot of trans friendly comms and instances in general. 196 may be a familiar name and the blahaj instance in general seems trans friendly. Depends on what type of comms you’re looking for. Check out voyager if you haven’t already, very reminiscent of Apollo. Welcome back.
