I knew I was bi for a while and never bothered coming out to family, but now I'm finding out I am also genderfluid recently.

I know coming out as a different gender is hard for ppl, so what exactly do I do? My Mum is kinda not a fan of the lgbt community.

You don't need to come out to her
Not a necessity
Though if you want, maybe take it as a topic subtly first. Some philosophical talk etc. "What if X animals are genderfluid" maybe bring out how sea creatures can be trans (in a way, both genders, they decide yk). See how she reacts to that. To kinda see would it be safe for you to come out.
Have a backup plan if it seems she doesn't seem too supportive and i mean in a way that'd cause you more harm than few rude comments. If you have irl friend who are supportive, maybe talk to them as well, form strong support net in case she gets awful. And then just come out the way you feel most comfortable whenever it was through text, call or face to face.
If she can't support, be prepared.
My advice probably kinda sucks. But yk, stay safe and try to express yourself as freely as you feel comfortable to

I already know she ain't gonna support me as of what I just got yelled at for

Is it to dangerous level where she could possibly kick you out? Or to the uncomfortable level where she just knows and will probably shame you for bloodline?

uhhhh, she said to my sister "you can be gay somewhere else but not under my roof" and i'm already 19 so she is legally able to kick me out

That's not good.
Is your sister or some friend able to take you in? Or do you get enough to be able to afford a motel or hotel for a while or something?

And friends or other safe relatives? Anyone within walking or biking range? Or buss range?
cunning marsh

cunning marsh

No, it's not a requirement. You don't have to. Especially since it could put you in a dangerous situation
