tbh I'd like to see this map with subregions. The differences within a country can be vast. Some of Brazil's major cities have lower homocide rates than some of the most dangerious cities in the US

wikipedia list ranking cities by homocides per 100000 inhabitants.

São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, two cities widely regarded as dangerous by brazilians, aren't even in the top 50 on that list, while there are several major US cities. So I think looking only at the country-level you don't really get a good picture of violence in the americas

I guess that is because people don't understand what the fediverse is and why it exists. It is one of the foundational problems the fediverse aims to fix. Marginalized communities get all the tools and authority to protect themselves from hatred and abuse.

That would require people actually recommending specific websites

I actually think that's the way to go! lemmy.blahaj.zone would be one example of a queer-inclusive community.

well in that case join an instance that doesn't federate with queer/transphobe instances? This is the advantage of federated social networks - it gives full control to the people who run their own instances
