i spent a lot of time looking at this, trying to not over simplify things, this is a genuine topic that is deserving of more nuance but i'm too sick to handle nuance, so please understand
i do like the vibes here that we're not at each other's throats for the actual imbalance of transed genders, and instead it's just... how it is lol
it's kinda funny how on the non-lolisho side of fedi, people make it a big deal that transmascs aren't that prevalent, meanwhile on lolisho fedi i feel like the opposite is true lmfao. it's a lot harder to find transfemmes around here, but nobody makes it out to be a really big deal? like we do exist here of course... just like how transmascs exist on non-lolisho fedi, so yeah lol
i don't like how people frame this though, people make it out to be "there's not enough of us, ergo it's the other side silencing us". that kinda argument is hideously insidious and is trying to separate us, y'know? making up things to get angry over just to try to form the gender binary all over again, trying to make it out to be "transfemmes are silencing us" is kinda fucked.
i mean here at least i don't see that kinda resentment, and i hope that stays. frankly i respect the fuck outta y'all transmascs on here and would never try to say you're silencing us... since like, you're literally not, it's just there's a lot more of you here. all this means is we have to encourage our sisters to see the light...
come to possums dot gay, where the owner of the instance is the only one to experience significantly slower download speeds than the rest of it's users
okay here's something interesting, when i test it from another VPS i happen to have on hand (different company)... the download times are instantaneous
so somehow, some way, i'm the only one who is experiencing issues, yay
putting this out here because i've noticed it got slower, probably due to the server being slower than what we used to have; i'll consider bumping up the specs if i can figure out when and how liberapay does payments, since they are really weird about that lol
