New rule: if you support transgender people or are trans, please change your username (if your instance allows it) to include your preferred pronouns

If you have no preferred pronouns, just say (none) or something
This will help make people feel more comfortable in this comm and has a side effect of showing you support trans people when making comments in other communities. It will also make reactionaries seethe and make it easier for mods to purge them, and make trans people feel safer all over the fediverse.

you can change your username? but i like my username the way it is. so if i did this, i'd be like, juliebean_she_her_her_hers_herself@lemm.ee? bit of a mouthful, innit?
No, there's your username and the thing that's displayed above your posts. My username is apotheotic, my display name is apotheotic (she/her)
huh, okay, today i learned. now that you've mentioned it i do see your display name if i click through to your user page, but not on your posts/comments, and idk how to change mine, but if other folks can see that, i'll look into it if i see a way.
Interesting!
this would be a good case for lemmy to start supporting flairs like reddit does. No shame in copying legitimately useful features.
