I’m not a parent, but I have much empathy for your predicament. You have the right to question this stuff, and learn about it, and decide how to handle it, without being judged. But, as others have said, I seriously doubt you’ll find that on social media, which for this issue is so politicized as to be utterly useless. It sounds like you could use a support group.

There might be a few resources on Substack:

• http://www.thestoicmom.com/ - I saved this a few months ago after seeing a link to it.
• https://pitt.substack.com/ - I know practically nothing about this one, but when I test-joined the above just now, Substack recommended it. I do see some anti-trans shitposts in the comments though.

For the Stoic Mom project, its perspective is the philosophy of Stoicism (so, she has that background), but she also has a trans daughter and appears to do consultations.

You might also consider contacting Conor Friedersdorf of The Atlantic, who wrote about this and is very well respected. Maybe he’d tell you which support groups he spoke to? You could also try to contact this woman, although I’m not sure how. Both are admittedly long shots.

Good luck.

Since that’s just a GitHub repo, can anyone explain the tech behind this?

Is this a pilot? Proof of concept? Who would use it? Has there been press about it? What’s the context?

I’m sure I’ll be downvoted or ignored, but I am not replacing Reddit with Lemmy. I’m using them both, except on my phone. There, I no longer use Reddit due to the need for the official app.

Lemmy has done a great job in a short time and it has a lot of awesome energy, but it doesn’t have the user base to support interesting discussions in niche subjects that I care about, or be a source of information in those. I doubt it ever will, although I’m rooting for it.

If I scroll through Lemmy in my subs or in c/all, I see three things:

• Memes
• Anti-Reddit brigading
• Shitposts

I love me some memes, and Lemmy is actually better than Reddit right now for those, but if I want information, I can’t get it on Lemmy. I might be able to get tech news, but I have RSS / Hacker News / Slashdot for that.

As an example, I’m switching from Evernote to Obsidian for note-taking and it’s a pain in the ass. Reddit has an 80k user subreddit for Obsidian, where within 10 minutes, somebody solved my problem. That kind of thing is never going to happen on Lemmy.

John Wick 4. Seemed like 2 uninterrupted hours of people shooting one-another in the face. I only made it 30 minutes.
