One of my most active subs on Reddit was /r/MensLib, an open, pro-feminist, trans-inclusive space for people to discuss men’s issues without toxicity and without anger or violence directed at women or men. It was a (mostly) wonderful community that fostered lots of genuine, heartfelt discussion, and it would seem to me that Beehaw as an instance would be the perfect place for such a community to take root on Lemmy.

(I’m aware of the community on lemmy.ca, but half the front page is misinformation and bad actors, and the mods are days behind in doing anything, which concerns me).

Thoughts?

    For sure! It’s been discussed last week with an admin: https://beehaw.org/comment/722094

    Basically it’s in the cards, but the admins (rightfully) recognize that this space will require extra good moderation and care, so they need to be ready before going forward.

      Oh, thanks for the link. I’m sorry I missed that discussion, but it’s good to know I’m not the only one who’d be interested in a space like this and I’m glad the admins are aware of the need.
