I realize this could very well come off as flippant or like I’m trying to pull a “gotcha,” so please believe me when I say that this comes from a genuine desire to understand.
If that’s really how you feel, why do you hang out on Hexbear? This place is pretty damn white.
Because c/em_poc exists, and has always felt more active than black_comrades on Lemmygrad, mostly. I like them. Do you know how few Black spaces that aren’t lib as fuck exist on the internet? If I wasn’t willing to walk through hordes of settlers to find community I’d just never fuckin use the internet.
i’d suggest using simplelogin, that way you can just give an aliased email instead of your real email address to services. simplelogin will redirect mails sent on those aliased email addresses to your ‘real email address’ on Bcc.
or you can just make another email address without much info on it to use solely to register on sites. ^^;

I don’t actually; do you have to give it an email to have an account? I try not to use anything that forces it at this point

sorry i fell asleep. sadly i do believe you need an email.
Some instances don’t. I think envs.net is one?
If I can figure this out, I’ll at least give it a fair swing!
Makes sense.
