ActualLesbians is heavy on the censorship in the name of creating a safe space but the current mods are under heavy criticism for this and many users question if it's a safe space for lesbians/feel tension around bi lesbian and trans issues. It also seems to draw the newly out and "am I a lesbian" questioning types

LesbianActually was formed in response to ALs flawed moderation and aims to be a more open/less censored space for all who identify as women-loving-women (lesbian bi trans pan fluid whatever). My impression is also that lost of the users feel more secure in their identities than the AL constituency. LA also tries to make their modding transparent and allows users onto the mod sub.

TL is first and foremost a space for the Ls in LGBTQ who aren't better represented by another letter (B, T, Q, etc), although we recently instituted policies that create moderated pathways for BTQs to contribute lesbian focused content to our sub in the name of free speech, etc.

We get some moderate users and some gender critical users, and we don't censor content from either unless it's not lesbian focused.

There's also r/gendercritlesbians that's attempting to come back from the dead that some of our more gender critical users might benefit from if they have content that's not lesbian focused enough for this sub.
