No gatekeeping. No lurk shame.
Membership is free and the door is open. Here's the entire process — no funnel, no tricks.
Find your room.
Pick a city chapter or a group that matches what you actually want to talk about. Change your mind later — nobody tracks it.
Lurk as long as you need.
You don't have to introduce yourself. You don't owe anyone a back-story. Read, react, save. Show up when you're ready.
Post when you mean it.
When you're ready to speak, your people are already listening. We'll tell you who welcomed you back.
Eighteen rooms, one hallway.
Every group is moderated by plus-size members. Browse by vibe, lurk before you post, leave whenever.

Propose a groupWhat brought you in?
I was thirty-seven and still shopping for my mother's approval. I opened Plustown expecting another wellness pitch — got a poetry thread about aunties and good bread instead.
What surprised you?
That people genuinely don't care if you lurk. I didn't post for four months. When I finally did, eleven strangers replied like they'd been saving me a seat.
What would you tell someone hovering over the join button?
Join. Don't speak. Read for a week. Then decide. The room doesn't ask you to audition.
Six cities run by plus-size locals.
Every chapter lead is paid, trained, and from the chapter they lead. Scroll the rail — or propose a new city.

Kuwait, Casablanca, Tunis and Muscat are next. Raise your hand — we'll bring the room to you.
Safety is a feature, not a footnote.
Every mechanism below is live in the product today. Ctrl-F for 'community guidelines' is not a safety plan.
One-tap report
Every post, comment, DM and profile has a report action on the first screen. No hidden menus, no forms.
Paid, trained, plus-size
Eleven moderators across the region. They're paid staff, not volunteers — and they live in the bodies they protect.
We close the loop
Every report gets a reply with what we did. No black holes, no 'thanks for the feedback' boilerplate.
Zero tolerance, specified
Fatphobia, diet-talk, concern-trolling, weight-loss content — first strike is a conversation, second is a ban.
Full guidelines, reporting flow and moderator bios live on the safety page.
