Youtube (I know, I know, corporate media, but Peertube doesn't have the content I want) doesn't support my pronoun (or custom pronouns not in their predefined list) 🙄

  I guess they only listed languages with gendered personal pronouns? Doesn’t make much sense for a Finn to specify their pronoun since it’s just going to be “hän” regardless of gender

    I specifically like it because it’s not gendered though

      Oh sure, I don’t disagree at all, I’m just trying to think of the logic behind why it’s not in the list.

      Half the finns don’t even use “hän”. In day to day conversations it’s frequently replace with “se” which is basically “it”, making no difference between living things and inanimate objects. That is not considered impolite or anything like that. It’s more a dialect thing.

  At least you can come pretty close with han. Would be nice if they gave you the umlaut you want

    Well han is Swedish for ‘he’, so not quite the same 🤣

    Yeah like Florece Foster Jenkins came pretty close to hitting the right notes almost every time…
