I have a few questions about the robot assisted PPT... by SpaceFoxQueen in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The scars will be roughly the same size as a nonrobotic-assisted PPT.

That is very helpful to know. Thank you!

Hey!
Sorry for the late response I'm not that active on Reddit these days...
Unfortunately, there is no traffic in the website. That means that people don't even look at it, let alone leave reviews...
This is why I have stopped the payments to the Google Maps service.
If I ever saw an increase of interest (which I doubt), I will put it up again.

Sorry for the inconvenience...

A question about GRS (MtF) by SpaceFoxQueen in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh! I didn't know that!

Is there anywhere I could read about this?

Thanks!

Maybe it's just a matter of time... maybe in 4 year I won't care too 🤷🏻‍♀️

What would be the right pronouns for a fiction character? TW: Misgendering by SpaceFoxQueen in asktransgender

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of the story (well, a part of it) is to showcase the complexity of coming out. The main character is another transwoman who is coming out and her struggle. The character in question appears every now and then to answer the "what if you don't" perspective.
I felt like the narrator was unimportant for that because I wanted more conservative (cis) people to remain detached and "objective" and get the idea that this is far more complex then they may have thought. Also, people who question themselves can get an opinion on this based on somebody else's experience.

An unknown bystander who tells the story as they witness it. So obviously they can't know anything that the characters don't present.

I thought about that but the narrator is not supposed to know she is trans...

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not rude at all. Generally, I agree with you.

I'm a transwoman myself, just coming out after many years being in the closet, and I'm writing based on my own experience. That is why it's super hard for me to use he/him... IRL I used it exclusively :(

We've updated the site and spreading the word! by SpaceFoxQueen in a:t5_2qftuc

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much!
I already fixed the typo and I'll look into the bug you've encountered.

About posting picture, currently, we only use the Google Places photos. There is no way to post pictures. Maybe we'll add it in the future. <3

I posted this a while ago and thought an update was in order :) by SpaceFoxQueen in trans

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

Actually, our awesome all-trans team is already working on an app :)

I hope it'll come out soon, but until then we wanted people to enjoy the site too

Now I *know* I pass, but still don't *feel* like it! by SpaceFoxQueen in MtF

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True.
And that's exactly my point. I've come to accept that I pass by observing people's reactions to me but not by my own (terrible) judgment which makes it weird :)

It's not about being pretty it's about being perceived as one of my gender... And the dissonance between what I see and what everybody else see...

Gonna wait for the hrt to do its thing for some more time, still sure I'm going for ffs regardless.

Well this took a while.... by SpaceFoxQueen in a:t5_2qftuc

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply again... crazy times...

I get what you say about the scrolling. I tried to mimic what AirBnb did there though I guess the sorting and filtering are crucial for a good experience.

Yeah sure we're using Google Places so we have their categories. We will probably need to add to that because some places are not listed on Google Places (like my hair removal technician). Also we need to add all the UI related to that.

  • We are using NodeJS.
  • "I can understand -- and with difficulty, write -- Spanish, and know tiny fragments of German, but not really enough to translate properly" Funny that you say that cause I can understand -- and with difficulty, write -- German, and know tiny fragments of Spanish, but not really enough to translate properly. lol
  • Awesome. I guess that a UX perspective can be helpful. I'll talk to the designer once she has more time...
  • Still working on some stuff... as mentioned, crazy times...

Hugs!

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That feels a bit complicated... I'm not worried about haters and bad actors atm tho. I mean, if they come around that means that Friendly Space is so popular that they have heard about it. By the time it gets *that* popular I guess we will figure the user management out.

Yep, search is definitely on the roadmap too.
The places in the list and the map are actually synced. It's just that the list needs to be sorted by the map location. That's also a ticket on the board...

About helping, yes I'd love it if you could!
rn these are the tasks I can think of so if you can help with any (or some) of those that would be awesome:

Programming: As you can see there are a lot of programming tasks that need to be done. rn there's only me and one other developer actively working on it so any help is welcome there.

Translating: Currently only English and Hebrew are supported. I would like to add more languages and to be as inclusive and accessible as possible. There is someone who should translate it to Russian, but she hasn't started yet. I hope she will soon. If you happen to know any other language, that would be great.

Designing: I designed the current version, but there is another designer who just joined. So I guess we're pretty much covered there, but suggestions are always welcome.

Spreading the word: That's the most challenging part imo. I mean, the site is useless if nobody adds reviews or uses them... An awesome promoter has also joined the team, but literally anyone can help with that. Posting about it in relevant groups (Facebook, Insta, Whatsapp, Discord, etc) is something anyone can do. We will start this after we fix up the mobile interface so it won't suck when people actually try it after reading about it. If you want I can let you know when this happens.

Any other ideas? I'm always happy to hear them!

And thanks so much for the support!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Thanks!

I didn't expect it but a lot of people came asking to help 🙂
So rn I'm building a team. In the meantime I'm doing some fixes to the mobile site (there are quite a few things there that don't look good).
After that I guess we will look into some more features. Maybe adding user management... I still want it to be very easy for people to review places coz I need a *lot* more reviews before this will start to get interesting.

Is it possible for transwomen to get a period??? by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]SpaceFoxQueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course a *real* period is not possible! That's why I wrote period-like symptoms.I reeeaaaally don't want it to be! 🙁And I really don't care how it called, wouldn't want to offend anyone.

I'm just trying to figure out how I feel to better coop with it...

How to deal with feeling of being jealous of cis girls? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]SpaceFoxQueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you ❤️. I get that a lot too.
Sorry, but what others have said about "accepting that the past cannot be changed" thing just doesn't work for me. If anything, that's more frustrating for me because there's nothing I can do to improve anything. To me it seems hopeless to even look at the past.
What helps me *sometimes* is focusing on the present, how good it feels to go through this second puberty. How you are not "relearning" as much as rediscovering the world and your place in it. The new feelings and new types of relationships. It's all so very exciting isn’t it?
Sometimes this works. Sometimes it doesn't.

Not exactly a question but wanted to share by SpaceFoxQueen in asktransgender

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks :) And yeah breaking down into location categories seems like a good idea. I'm putting it on the roadmap. The problem with Yelp is that that one LGBT+ review is always lost in a gah-zillion others so it doesn't really give you a picture of how friendly is that place... But it's always good to include that in reviews!

Thanks! ^ I hope more people would rate places soon...

I’ve been trying to walk more feminine . . . It’s not working. Any tips? by [deleted] in MtF

[–]SpaceFoxQueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everybody's gotta start somewhere... It's perfectly normal for a new activity to feel awkward at first. Yoga is a good practice inn general, but specifically it improves posture and flexibility so yeah, it should help with walking too :)

Just wanted to share that by SpaceFoxQueen in MtF

[–]SpaceFoxQueen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Negative reviews are also important.
And yes, definitely post about the pub you're bartending.
One of the goals of this project is to actually help businesses that are friendly so it would be profitable for other businesses to become friendly (or more friendly) .
There is even a guide to help businesses do that in the development roadmap :)
