I find this website equally as anti-feminist as Reddit. Doesn’t really surprise me since this website is more male than Reddit and also full of Reddit refugees.
Thank you! I’ll definitely add a few of these communities to my block list. I haven’t stumbled on too many out and proud conservatives in the wild here, but some of these leftist men are still carrying a lot of sexist baggage. This will still help a bit!
To be fair I’m a lesbian so I def don’t mind the boobs lol, but yeah it’s a bit too frequent for my feed, haha.
What also helps is being on an instance that is explicitly affirming and welcoming to gals and queers. I often tongue-in-cheekishly use queer and furry presence as a canary. They tend to be super chill and whenever they’re in some space, it’s often a sign for me that it’s welcoming.
The instance is important, because some defederate with a lot of the bad stuff by default. So that helps.
It’s hard to parse through the difference in instances when first joining lemmy tbh. I ended up creating my first account on world and it was really off-putting. Lemmy.today is a little closer to what I’m comfortable with and it’s being hosted in a state that I consider a good neighbor, so I’ve stuck around so far.
Definitely have considered making an account on blahaj.zone

It’s incredibly anti-feminist and misogynistic. It really feels like early Reddit days and 4chan here more often than not.
We’ve got men coming in this very thread crying misandry because of a somewhat critical tone towards men who aren’t feminists.
Block some instances, that helps. Give me a sec, I have a list ready.
Edit: here’s one to look for in comments. Still looking for the list…
Edit 2: found it! Here’s the block list I use, very handy.
@sveltecider@lemmy.ca , this may also be handy for you!
