Hello FWRs

Has anyone signed up to spinster.xyz yet? It’s like twitter but without the misogyny. No banning for stating biological truths. See you over there hopefully

Looking at what's unfolding on here in less that 24 hours of starting....I don't think it's a forum for me. Outing a user like that is perhaps a little taster of what's to come and continue from some on Twitter.

Having been subjected to stuff like that myself a few times for no good reason other than disagreeing. No thanks

Sorry, Amalfimamma, I'm not a regular here and am not familiar with you or anyone else. Is she working by private message or something?

You seem to be saying what's happened here on MN is a taste of what will happen somewhere else. Not sure I follow the reasoning.

Hi all, just dropping by to say that revealing personal info isn't really in the spirit of the site - we've removed a couple of instances whilst we investigate.

OhtheHillsareAlive · 13/08/2019 14:44

I joined last night - oh, dear another time suck.

But I'm not leaving Twitter

NotTerfNorCis · 13/08/2019 15:20

Joined! So exciting. Will explore more later.

Btw it's far more like Twitter than MN, so I'll def be continuing here too.

GrimDamnFanjo · 13/08/2019 15:38

Its open again and I've joined.
Using different email etc. Of course I've now realised that many of the people I want to follow will also be incognito!

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 13/08/2019 15:51

Is anyone else not recieving their confirmation email? Now it's reopened I've signed up, but I'm not getting the email Confused

wacademia · 13/08/2019 15:54

You still can get spinster badges.

NotTerfNorCis · 13/08/2019 16:23

My confirmation mail went to Junk.

CaveMum · 13/08/2019 16:36

My confirmation email went to junk too, so check spam folders.

PurpleCrowbar · 13/08/2019 16:46

It's saying closed to new members again? Am I following the wrong link?

TerfTalk · 13/08/2019 16:54

I've finally found my confirmation email (was in spam), but every time I log-in the screen goes white?

owlonabike · 13/08/2019 16:57

Really stupid question here, but is the advice to use a different email address purely in case the site is hacked? Or are there any other reasons?

IdaBWells · 13/08/2019 17:21

For some who are concerned it will be just a ghetto of opinions that will never see the light of day elsewhere, we should take heart that the 2nd wave Women’s Movement emerged from a lot of small consciousness-raising groups. These groups just let women speak their minds freely and from that simple concept the movement spread like wildfire. There’s a reason TRAs are doing everything in their power to prevent women speaking and assembling freely.

BrightonReSisters · 13/08/2019 17:27

We signed up today, looking forward to discussing material reality without fear of being disappeared in the night. Especially as it looks like our twitter suspension is permanent

We are: @BrightonReSisters@spinster.xyz

Hope to see you there!

hmmmmmm ... that's interesting.

The link doesn't work if Spinster detects it is a link from another web site but if you just post the link into your browser it does seems to work.

Maybe this is a way to stop any post being targetted by hostile bots.

Sorry if I am confusing anybody but I am trying to work out the value of the space and it depends on who can see what.

NotAtMyAge · 13/08/2019 19:47

Managed to register at last after several tries. I'm @sockknitter@spinster.xyz

Joisanofthedales · 13/08/2019 19:49

I've just joined 😊

PancakeAndKeith · 13/08/2019 19:59

Just registered.
I think I understand it.

PurpleCrowbar · 13/08/2019 20:05

Oh I'm in! Excellent.

TerfTalk · 13/08/2019 20:07

Why were you banned from Twitter @BrightonReSisters ? Sad
