I thought we should do a welcome post for our new trans posters! We're all excited to have you all here
Let me direct you first to the trans mega, it's a very cozy place for trans people to post and you don't necessarily have to post about being trans there (though of course there is lot of gender happening in there at all times!)
For an even more relaxed and chat-based setting, there's Tracha, aka our Matrix-based chat. Read the rentry for more information!
Finally, if you use pronouns that are not yet available to be selected, please DM the site admins and they are very happy to help! My own pronouns (ze/zir) weren't on the site till I asked for them.
We hope you all have fun and enjoy the community here!

Bluesky is having some issues with a transphobe, so a relatively popular left-wing account posted about a partial move to Hexbear. That's my understanding, at least.
I mean not the transphobe stuff but swag that people are coming here

I'm in the process of trying to familiarize myself with this place. I attempted to join the group chat, but can't seem to get it to work. I get an error message.

(apologies in advance for vent/language)
I am almost 50. Transitioning is a relatively recent thing. I spent years on Twitter. Last month I left for what I thought would be bluer, safer skies. Then the pedo apologist came and was allowed to stay, even after explicitly stating he was intent on making life hell for us. I'm tired. I'm just fucking tired. And then someone told me about this place. After just over a day, I'm loving it. But, being frank, I'm still a touch wary . But the energy is.....hopeful? Make sense?

I'm old as fuck and transitioned a long time ago when I was 18 cause I was an IRC head back in the day. People transitioned all the time, and we even had our own interesting culture back then! People would mail CDs/tapes filled with resources to people who asked for it. Now its basically the same but because the internet is much more user friendly now and information is more dense we can reach way more people that have been needing help all this time
