how could they this is unacceptable we need to boycott meower and use facebook instead 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

JoshAtticus commented 3 months ago

but being fr, having an array and stuff is too complex, it can just be a single string, like tnix also said on meower, see https://leo.atticat.tech/share/?id=4bff790b-cca9-42e5-834f-99b0868f9680

esk33 commented 3 months ago

I agree with Josh, this seems like an overengineered solution considering the problem it is trying to solve

showierdata9978 commented 3 months ago

I ain't changing the format

JoshAtticus commented 3 months ago

I ain't changing the format

then this pr should be closed

It might be a bit difficult to create a UI for entering these like that with clients. I think just using strings would be better.

{
  "pronouns": ["he/him", "they/them"]
}

I think this is what's going to be implemented now.

showierdata9978 commented 3 months ago

yep

CST1229 commented 3 months ago

I would suggest going the Discord route and just having one text field.

{
"pronouns": "he/they"
}
showierdata9978 commented 3 months ago

that was already 100% ruled out.

JoshAtticus commented 3 months ago

who said it was going to be merged then?

showierdata9978 commented 3 months ago

This should be changed to just a string. I still think an array of strings is too much.

no

Why is it too much? It would be nice to be able to have a "preferred" pronoun that could be displayed inline on posts, but to also have another/others that could be displayed on a profile, for instance

You can always use your quote to have more, or link to something like pronouns.page. I don't think Meower as a chat platform needs to have all your pronouns, just the one you most prefer is enough in my opinion.

That makes sense

pronoun support is something i'm in favor of adding but the amount of bikeshedding and the focus on rewriting events makes this extremely low priority
