Pardon my ignorance but what would be the point of that? You can sign up on any instance and participate in any women's communities. It's not like there's any way to verify the user's gender anyway.

I want there to be a witchesvspatreiarchy here, but I'm a dude and it'd be messed up if I started it.

This idea is pretty cool, i hope they will succeed to achieve that. Imo, we lack diversity on the forumverse except maybe mastodon.

It would provide an additional security layer, another governance. They could also benefit a lot from local community and can check vote, email, ip...Other have already mentionned good example with blahaj, beehaw...

On the other hand, it will render the instance more visible.

On my main instance, jlai.lu, i think we don't manage well sexist speech. They are moderated, we do our best to explain to our users what's wrong and slowly change them but we don't have the same sensibility as women.

Men explaining women...So we probably missed lot things.

Lemmy,blahaj,zone is run by Ada, who is a woman

I wish I could recommend blahaj, there are a lot of trolls in the space that the admins have successfully been guilted into supporting.

I was thinking of making one, but I'm not a woman, so I'll think of something else

Like women only or hosted by women? Based on the selfhosted poll I’m guessing there is a 5% there is.
