That is odd. I usually prefer when people talk with me instead of about me.
Comment on Does Hexbear mandate all users to specify their preferred pronouns?

It’s part of the signing up process. I’ve seen people without them, but it’s very rare. There’s probably a grace period.

No one’s talking about you

I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you mean in relation to what I said.

Were talking pronouns as part of the sign up process.
@qyron@sopuli.xyz says that @qyron@sopuli.xyz would rather like to be tagged and be part of the conversation, instead of having people talk behind @qyron@sopuli.xyz’s back.
It’s likely meant to be seen as a witty remark, and not a statement. :)

Why is being witty the default stance, instead as an honest statement?

Sorry if you didn’t want to know, but: you can’t get rich that way.

Don’t be sorry but I still don’t want to be talked about.

I’m talking about qyron right now, qyron won’t supply us with qyrons chosen pronoun and now I have to say qyron every damn time instead of a nice short common pronoun.
Qyron is making things unnecessarily difficult and shitty. Don’t be like qyron.

What if my preferred pronouns are to not have any?
Critical_Insight@feddit.uk 1 year ago
None/use name seems to be an option aswell

How should people refer to you in the third person? It’s okay to use one’s name as the preferred pronoun.
BloodSlut@lemmy.world 1 year ago
please do not refer to me

A name is a noun, not a pronoun, but the site seems to allow “none/use name” as an option.

There are societies where not using one’s name is rude. In general it’s safe to just call one by name instead of dehumanize them with labels.
