I'm curious what regions of the US have the most active trans users on the fediverse. Please respond first to this poll, then find the appropriate follow-up poll and respond too. This is mostly just for our general community curiosity/knowledge as an interesting bubble of trans people on the internet.

My instance only does 5 options for polls, and I tried to aim for where I at least know a few people are. Tried to add additional polls for others, know I still am glad you’re here and going to try to count you!

The fact I didn't remember to put Philly on the Northeast poll though is a problem...and unfortunately if I change it, it resets the whole thing. πŸ˜–

I guess Philadelphia people reply to the Northeast poll to allow me to count you! Apologies, ADHDisaster here

I suspect it's not the safest to openly identify as trans and living in those two states right now.
