Hello dear. I’m trans and Hexbear is pretty much my favorite place on the internet. Here’s a link to the current trans mega!
Comment on Reddit Sub Ban Wave

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

Lemmy.blahaj.zone or Hexbear.net (depending on your politics)
For the latter, a good community is
c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns
(Note: yes, c/ means community or just comm for short)

I managed to find c/traaaa@Hexbear.net and subscribed. Thank you!

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.

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 🥲

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.

Ill have to check out voyager! I’m using Sync at the moment since I recognized the name. Thank you for the recommendation!

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.

Hi, also a trans person and chiming in to say Hexbear is the most transgender place on the internet 😎
muntedcrocodile@lemm.ee 2 weeks ago
Its also the most tankie place on the internet so not all sunshine and rainbows.
Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 2 weeks ago
That would be Lemmygrad.ml
So technically we’re second most tankiest
We’re just the most largest one.
Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
If “tankie” means general leftist, ie Anarchists included, then maybe. If “tankie” means Marxist-Leninist, then that’s Lemmygrad.ml
