Collecting links and snapshots of lives across Southeast Asia and maybe a little further. Owned by a Malaysian who is inviting others to contribute to a hopefully representative view of the Southeast Asian fediverse. We track fedi-specific hashtags for our microblog as general country magazines exist or are upcoming (eg Philippines channel on Lemmy; and @Malaysia@kbin.social here). Currently tracking: - TootSEA (regional)

MYToots (Malaysia)
MakanApaToday (food posts) Please let me know of others! **Link: thread on how to navigate and contribute here but also the threadiverse at large**.

Fascinating field notes from genuinely one of the most contested and policed spaces of public expression and art, slash fanfiction. The Chinese example here is well-observed, but to a large extent it happens here in Southeast Asia as well to varying degrees (e.g. IP bans of known fandom-heavy spaces are common)

@whatshisays it's really interesting how this is seen as subversive behaviour, basically, but not enough for an outright ban

@cendawanita idunno for sure because I don't go there to keep track of these accounts, though I think by now it should be obvious that the average nonconforming individual is pretty accustomed to moving around.
