Welcome to Hexbear, and more specifically the Trans comm! catgirl-heart

It's cozy here and we've got a pretty large mod team willing to address any issue Blue-sky has failed you on. I hope you like it here, and if you have any problems, report any comments that make you feel uncomfortable and feel free to reach out to one of us if you wish to talk. We have a zero tolerance policy towards anyone messing with our trans comrades.

Make yourself comfortable but be sure to familiarize yourself with the comm rules. They're there for your protection. Avoid sharing selfies and and information that can doxx your identity, we want this to remain a safe environment for everyone but there's only so much we can do if your information gets leaked.

We've also got a trans-exclusive chatroom on matrix if any of you care to join us there and vibe. I look forward to getting to know yall!

    Ty! I'd been off social media for a year, joined Bluesky literally two weeks ago and then, well. Excited to be in a place that cares about trans ppl

      As of the last gender survey, the majority of us are trans. The trans comm is especially chill in regards to the wider hexbear, so when we do have struggle sessions, the trans comm should still be a safe place to hang out.

        Awesome, thank you! The intersection of trans and leftist is wild and also not really that unexpected

          Trans folk have always been thrown under the bus by the establishment, so it's only natural that we'd reject their ideals and turn into a bunch of communists.

            Fr watching it happen in real time is wild even though I completely expected it

              Yeah, I'm not surprised BlueSky abandoned you. Liberals love pretending to support minority groups until it comes time to actually make some accommodations for us.

                It's not just Bluesky but yeah. I didn't expect the libs to start Project 2025 themselves on a volunteer basis.

                Libs love to support minorities to make themselves feel like a good person right up until there is the slightest risk of personal risk or sacrifice. Never allies, only fair weather friends

    Just wanted to plug the unofficial mastodon instance too if people are looking for something more similar to bsky in addition to being here

    It has cool people on it and good moderation
