I’m going through all the comms I moderate and asking for feedback from the different demographic groups.

I personally feel like we do a good job moderating hexbear in terms of blatant transphobia, there is a reason why the majority of our userbase is some flavor of gender-queer, and from a moderator perspective: this is the easiest comm to mod as it never seems to have any issues.

However, I would still like your feedback. Is there anything you feel like as a trans person that we could do better in regards to moderating both this community specifically, and hexbear in general?

    Thanks for bringing up the concern here, as it does spread awareness. I’m not sure how actionable from a moderator position this is however. We can encourage people to take further precautions, but its a responsibility that falls onto everybody.

      Yeah I get it, I agree that this is unfortunately outside the scope of moderation. I’m more bringing it up here in hopes that some users will take it to heart, and since it seems like an appropriate chance to criticize the community. I appreciate you taking the time to organize this stuff and hear me out regardless.
