I haven’t found any interface for setting or seeing user profiles. Not on the web, not in voyager. I see people refer to them but I just assume my server isn’t on the latest release or something.

Edit: … and I went poking around again and found it in the browser under my profile settings, and I can now see profile information that way. Still without any access in my primary client, it’s not particularly useful.

Of course they are.

I think you should ask a lawyer and not a therapist or internet randos.

I’ve had my differences with the groupthink and gotten massively downvoted, but never banned. Could be something more to it.

Misgendering and deadnaming people is considered just as offensive as any slur in queer-friendly spaces, and it’s hard to separate accidents from transphobia online. That’s my guess if you got banned over a trans-post.

Tried to make this as neutral as possible over whether you deserved it or not. I don’t know, but I do think it’s healthy for everyone to have queer-friendly places where us straights have to watch our step. Maybe learn a little empathy about what it’s like to not have everything cater to our comfort. Let queer folks have a place where respecting them is the norm and they can feel safe like we do in other places.
