It's a nice place. I've never had any issues with it. I like that I have a space to be with like-minded people after spending most of my time around people who very much aren't. I like that I don't often encounter racism and while I do encounter misogyny it is less common here than other online spaces
this about sums up my experience.
more often than not when i do encounter misogyny or transphobia it's coming from someone off-instance and it's taken care of when pointed out.
Didn't even mention the transphobia but places like this and bearsite are such an oasis. Even when I do see transphobia it is at least subtler. I'm not seeing slurs thrown around
Bearsite?
