Just a quick heads up, that r/menopause (on Reddit) has been re-opened for the time being. In the coming days, it will be ‘restricted’ instead of being private.

As an internet user of more than 25 years, and a redditor of more than 12 years, I think it is important to continue fostering this community on Lemmy. It is currently the only publicly-owned and operated social media platform and has exploded in growth in just the last few weeks. For those of you missing the wiki here, we are just waiting for a software update that will allow for larger posts (the wiki is huge!)

Personally, I believe strongly in having a healthcare-focused community that is free from advertising and corporate and pharmaceutical interests. I sincerely hope I am not alone in this belief.

I know some of you may want to return to reddit now that r/menopause is re-opened, but I implore you to consider the road ahead.

More updates to come.

    As long as there’s a community, I’m not planning to go anywhere–I’m really not interested in supporting yet another social media as$hole that doesn’t care about the well-being of his users.
