With more people joining Lemmy and other decentralised networks there is a growing shift to the common misogyny and sexism we find on other social media networks (YouTube, Reddit, etc.).

I think it’s pretty obvious that the reason is that there are even less women here than other places online. What are your ideas on how to change that? Or do you feel it is a lost cause?

        “Just act like a man and you won’t be attacked, idiot!!! And do not post or engage in discussions about women or the issues they face!!! You’re making yourself a target by being a woman, you moron!!!”

        🤡

        Invite more women to Lemmy? Why? So they can be forced to deal with shit like this if they try to discuss women’s issues? No fucking thank you.
