Please stop defederating from general purpose news services, just because they sometimes do a transphobia.

I'm trans, and I'm telling you its worse for me to cut off my news sources than to read those news sources misgender people or whatever.

Seriously, come the fuck on, we just talked about this. Stop making the fediverse into some arcane and impenetrable little clique powered by unwritten rules and endless purity tests.

This is about #bbc, among others

@jenniferplusplus this is exactly why I don't use this platform anymore lol, federation is a complete and total failure. too many hall monitors on the internet for it to ever work
