Can we make putting pronouns in display names mandatory for this instance?

🙌 Thank you!!
I support this too. I know some clients only show the username and not the display name, but wygd?
don't ask why I'm on this 20 day post, but this is a terrible idea. When I was an egg still discovering my gender, I hated feeling forced to give pronouns because I just wasn't sure what they were. It did not make me feel safer to be compelled to, quite the opposite. I enjoyed when it was optional or encouraged, but hated when it was mandatory.

While I don't have an account on there yet. I was thinking about making an alt here but misogyny on the fediverse is everywhere - someone admitting they are a woman on here often just means them getting hostile replies. People may also not be entirely clear on their own pronouns.
