Mastodon and today's fediverse are unsafe by design and unsafe by default - SDF Chatter

Parts 1, 2, and 3 of “Golden opportunities for the fediverse – and whatever comes next”

Firstly, WTF is LGBTAIQ2S+?. Secondly, I haven’t experienced any more bigotry here than I would on any other social media platform.
A terrible idea by the LGBT community to expand the definition, when they thought they already “won” the battle and wanted to expand their scope, completely ignoring how marginalized the trans community was at that point, and how much was still left to fight for LGB rights. People quickly objected and most threw away the dumb acronym.

I kinda thought the ever-expanding acronym problem was being informally solved by a gradual transition to just saying "Queer."

I am not a member of any of the groups that would fall under that categorization though, so I may be wrong.

It’s tricky … many people do use “queer” as an umbrella term, but a lot of trans people don’t like being lumped under that, and some lesbian, gay, bi, and agender people don’t consider themselves queer. There aren’t great answers.
