I'm enjoying mastodon so far but wow, all the comments about how white it is are extremely right. Almost all the other trans folks I've found have been white, and I know that isn't representative of the real world or even likely mastodon as a whole. I'd love to hear more from trans and queer POC (and POC all up, I've just been connecting with a LOT of trans folks).

Can anyone boost this to help me find more voices to listen to? Or recommend some hashtags? I don't even know how best to tag this.

But that's not Mastodon's fault - nobody gets stopped at the door...

@keithreeder didn't say it was. Not what I'm asking.

@inherentlee

But it's - verbatim - what you *said*.

I'm just saying that if there's a problem *on* a problem, that doesn't mean it's a problem *with* the platform.

@keithreeder I didn't apply blame anywhere and am not interested in having that conversation with you.
