I’m a french feminist guy. I created a safe space for all Survivors and their loved ones, exactly like r/rape on Reddit. BUT, btw, not EXACLTY. r/rape is pretty wild and had bad moderation. r/SexualAsssault is ALSO weird and sometimes wild. r/MenGetRapedToo is too little to become one day a first-class resource on Reddit.

So, I want make my Lemmy community useful for all users. What are the things you want to see in it ? I’ve already decided to add links and ressources redirecting to RAINN.org, hotlines, and other useful helps. What can I do After this ?

    I love this so much! Thank you!!

    RAINN is great for resources! I pull their stats often and there’s great resources there.

    I’d love to see discussions about awareness and reduction. There’s quite a few deeply caring and intelligent Lemmings who would treat such discussions with respect.

    You will need to moderate very closely. There’s a lot of users here who victim blame and push that false reporting is more damaging than actually being raped. It is imperative that those views aren’t tolerated if victims are going to feel safe sharing their stories.

      Thank you for the point of view ! Idk how an user can integrate a mod team on Lemmy, but if you want, you’re welcome. Ok, I’m checklisting that lol.

      Sorry for dumb english, also.

      All users are welcome. EXCEPTED in case of victim blaming, harmful purposes, creepy DM(s), Etc. In this case, you can comment the username into a mod post in the community, called “Court Room”, and I’ll ban it.

        keep in mind that moderation has it’s own tools as well too, you will want to be careful of the public witch hunt system that could become. Anyone can report posts and comments like:

        And the little “shield” icon you see in the top right of lemmy shows those reports. And you can then choose to take actions like

        (You won’t have access to all of those tools if you’re just managing the community, but the same workflow applies)

        So put all your rules in the sidebar, remove comments or posts that break them, and ban users that are repeat offenders or especially hateful
