posting here because I don’t want to draw attention to myself
these don’t save, the save button does nothing:
[they/them][][][][](they/them)(they|them)(they\them){they/them}
even foreign brackets fail
【they/them】〈they/them〉《they/them》「they/them」『they/them』〔they/them〕
non-brackets also fail, and look stupid
!they/them¡they/them#Othey/themO
this one “saves” but never appears, and when I go back to settings it’s gone:
- <they/them>
this one saves and appears, but I want brackets!
they/them
meanwhile, variants of he and she both work
it’s like they have some kind of regex filter lol
Its possible that it’s just that the user name goes over the character limit because [they/them] uses so many characters
Edit: yeah it seems like mycorrhiza [they/them] is 21 characters if I’m counting right, It’s probably just that the character limit is set to 20, try removing the space between the username and the [they/them] and see if that works
that would be funny and embarrassing, i’ll test it
…that is it
It seems like the change hasn’t federated over to hexbear yet but when I viewed it on your instance it looked fine. Federation works in mysterious ways so it’ll probably carry over soon <3
oh, I currently have no pronouns set because i haven’t decided how i want to fit into the character limit yet

I’m pretty sure we have a massive character limit for the @'s we can set and pronouns aren’t included in that so ours can get really long, but lemmy.ml has quite a small character limit
Edit: yeah I was just poking around with the pronouns settings and I think this is the largest set of pronouns you can get: “[none/use name, comrade/them]” which comes to 29 characters not even including the username itself (30 characters if you count the space between the @ and the pronouns)
I like big PRONOUNS and I cannot lie, you other they/thems can’t deny, but when a they walks in with a itty bitty face and says “this is a comfortable space” you get SPRUNG
even though we kinda solved the mystery I still made one
