Now that the old Hexbear fork has been officially abandoned, this community will be used as a space for meta-discussion on the site itself.

There are a few users on the site without pronouns now (other than "none/use name", I mean like there is no pronoun field at all)

Was considering writing a no-fun-allowed patch for this unless this is intended behavior now? I would have submitted a diff but I can't build lemmy on my system to test any changes :(

It seems like the patch would be pretty easy, there is already pronoun validation code it just needs to be applied when people try to update their username

This seems like a deviation from the path laid out for us by comrade TC69

Thankfully this is a problem easily solved with some regex

Same TBH. Sometimes I just go on regexr and put in data to see what I can come up with.
