    Yes, but you can clearly see a woman in her profile pic, combined with a girl’s name, on a trans instance, and if any of that gives you pause enough to check her profile, you’ll find it says, “sapphic. hater of capital letters. bunny and cat mum.” Just because some random guy somewhere goes by KD does not make it ok to misgender someone who is very obviously a woman.

    Whoever downvoted this, come out and say it my face, coward. Fuck transphobes.

      lol… you really need to pick a better hill to die on than this- “who downvoted me?! My words need to be respected!” crap. I downvote you all the time when I see you trying to get under people’s skin- which is more frequent than when you’re not.

      You aggressively argue with people and refuse to accept that others see the word differently than you do. And both your modlog and your comment history proves this.

      I can’t recall ever seeing a single profile pic on Lemmy. Even when clicking on a username, all I see are posts, no profile. I honestly didn’t even know there was a profile to edit. I’m primarily on Voyager.

      No downvotes from me; just adding my experience to the conversation.

      Anyone browsing on most mobile Lemmy apps does not see profile pics btw, so people might be downvoting because “she’s very obviously a woman” is in fact not at all obvious to mobile users.

      I did not downvote btw. Am using Eternity Lemmy client.

        There’s still the username. And the proper response to that situation is, “Oh, oops, I didn’t realize, let me edit my comment, thanks for bringing it to my attention.”

        If I can figure out a way to view who downvoted, I will be tagging them to call them out and name and shame. I find it completely inexcusable. If they didn’t know they were in the wrong, they wouldn’t be afraid to show their faces and explain themselves.

          I downvoted you. It’s because you don’t know how to discuss topics like an adult without arrogantly insulting people.

          News flash: Despite what you seem to think- no one here is beneath you. You’re just a random person on the internet- just like everyone else.

          I really want to down vote you because of your aggressiveness and off topic ranting but I’ll ask instead what about their username should tell me the user’s gender?

                Why the fuck are y’all using these shitty apps that don’t display either profile pics or usernames properly? Literally worse functionality than just using a browser.

                Don’t get mad at me for your choice to use a shitty product that takes away basic functionality and causes you to be ignorant about people’s identities.

                “Um, actually, you’re being unfair to people using text-only browsers.”

                  My god, I’m beginning to think you’re a parody account. No one can be this arrogant and smug about something so petty and unimportant as what app one uses.

                  No one is mad at you for the app they use. People are upset with your shitty behavior. No one that downvoted you did so because of transphobia or whatever bullshit reason you want to come up with. It’s because you’re a miserable keyboard warrior and likely troll.

                    People like this do not handle being disagreed with very well, do they?

                    Simply cannot accept their imaginary version of events isn’t what actually happened.

                    “My shitty behavior,” that is, calling out misgendering and transphobia. But it’s definitely not transphobia that’s motivating downvoters. Oh, and you know this how? None of them have come out to say their reasons, because they’re transphobic cowards who don’t want to get called out for it.

                    You’d better fucking believe I’m going to “aggressively” support trans people against you fucks.

                  My app, and clearly a lot of mobile apps, show the @, which is like the legal name, so [email protected], it does not show the account display name, which is Katy, until I click on the profile. This is most likely due to screen size and for readability. Same with the profile picture, do not see it until I click on the profile.

                    Which brings me back to the question I’ve been trying to get an answer to as to why someone would go out of their way to install an app that reduces the websites functionality.

                    In any case, the proper response should be, “oops, it was a mistake, thanks for letting me know” and not fighting me on it or downvoting.

                    No, her display name is “katy✨”

                    If you weren’t using an app that removes basic functionality, this is what you’d see:
