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]
  • (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

      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

      No need to be embarrassed. If it doesn’t have a useful error message, there’s not a whole lot you can do. Especially when you see people with longer display names wandering about
