I’m not sure what’s going on over there, but half the time I see a post from there or go into a comment section and it’s just…bad. Like old reddit the_donald bad. Constant trolling, etc. You TS just really bad vibes. I’ve been blocking the communities as they come up, but I’m not sure what else I can do.

Are pronouns actually mandatory on Hex?

[–] Kuori@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

you're allowed to set them to none/use name if you really prefer, but pronouns are always displayed yes

it's part of what has made hexbear the friendliest space to be trans (period imo, but especially online)

[–] ThereRisesARedStar@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes.

[–] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Like you can link me to something that says that?

[–] ThereRisesARedStar@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Just try to make an account without pronouns on hexbear, you'll see it is impossible.

[–] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Yes, and we banned everyone who didn't want them mandatory. Because using optional pronouns is just a magnet for "this person is trans, dm them 'you will never be woman, kys'" from Nazis. If everyone uses pronouns display, it is normalized.

Yes, but you can choose any/none/use name if you dont want it listed
