Reddit admins forced the mods of /r/changemyview to ban the discussion of transgender topics. Is there a version of /r/changemyview here that allows transgender topics?
Also, if you come in expecting to debate for the removal of trans rights, you won’t last long
uhh. where did you get that idea from? I support trans rights.
Welcome to lemmy. To help you get settled, the comment you are replying to is from the admin of a/the dedicated trans instance. And a “little” combative about it.
Lemmings don’t really like when people argue against the majority opinion, on any topic. The Fediverse is incredibly tribal.
There are 4 on different instances when I searched, the most active one looks to be !changemyview@lemmy.world
I personally havent tried it but “be the change” you know? I didnt see a few subs I missed so I made them (different account). Start posting on there and maybe it will inspire more.
Welcome but I don’t know.
Maybe I should go answer at !nostupidanswer…
Which AI are you planning to use?
Go to the search bar in Lemmy. Filter to search for Communities. Enter in related search terms such as “changemyview” or “change my view”. Inspect each community to see what their rules are. Inspect the host instance for each community to see what their rules are. Though these communities you find here may not be as active as their Reddit counterparts, you can help grow the social environment you want to experience by participating in these communities.
That’s the good thing! You can just run your own instance with your own rules!
Welcome to Lemmy, here are a few pointers to help you settle in
There are a few, but pretty much all of them are inactive: lemmyverse.net/communities?query=changemyview&ord…
Important Lemmy rule: don’t assume a community is dead without having posting on it. I have been answered 9 times out of 10.
Well now I’m curious what the 1 out of 10 was that wasn’t answered.

Uhh this sounds sus af.
What topics are you wanting to cover?

This is from the subreddit mods’ rules. I don’t see it necessarily implying OP to be in the wrong or in the right. It really just implies those damn corporate admins are at fault. OP could just want a platform which doesn’t censor a discussion on subject matter alone.

That matches my experience with reddit admin. One of my subs had to implement exactly the same rule.

That’s very important context for this question

Are you familiar with the subreddit /r/changemyview ? I don’t have a topic to discuss right now. But I am against the reddit admins banning a certain topic from being discussed because it’s controversial.

I haven’t really used reddit since Lemmy almost 2 years ago now, but yes I’m familiar enough with the sub and its concept.
Is it because it’s controversial, or because nobody operates in good faith and uses it to attack trans people?
Because I’m so tired of JAQ offs.

Lemmy admins/mods are even more heavy handed than Reddit ones from what I’ve seen in the mod logs - especially around transgender topics. There is seemingly no discussion allowed, only echo chamber agreement.
Like if you said that you agreed with the UK Supreme Courts ruling on biological sex and sex based spaces, you’d probably be banned for being “transphobic” on many communities and instances here.
