The mystery of the preferred pronouns injection (lemmy.ml)

If have not assigned a “Display name” to my @davel@lemmy.ml account, and as expected—at least on lemmy.ml—it displays as “@davel”. However, on every other instance it displays as “davel [he/him] (@davel@lemmy.ml)” (on Hexbear.net it looks slightly different: “davel [he/him]@lemmy.ml”)....

You don’t have a display name now, but maybe you did at some point?
Maybe it’s just the removal of the display name that didn’t federate properly?
Just a hunch

Yup, I removed my own display name a while back but the change doesn’t reflect on remote instances.

I don’t think it’s a functionality but that deleting one’s display name has issues federating to other instances.

I had a display name but it was a bit too long so I’ve deleted it locally.
Remote instances still display it.
Mine has nothing to do with the bio or pronouns, it’s just a federation bug.

I just re-added a (different) display name, testing…

It’s not related to the markup table because I have the same issue with mine and nothing like that in my bio.

I think display name federation is just (recently?) broken, but it was working a while ago when we both set these old display names.

ie: we’re stuck with whatever display name we had when display name federation was last working

We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay?

The person you’re replying to believes climate change to be a lie, so I think you’re probably wasting your time.

[Discussion] How do you feel about age verification on Porn sites? (lemmings.world)

Porn sites Pornhub, XVideos, and Stripchat face stricter requirements to verify the ages of their users after being officially designated as “Very Large Online Platforms” (VLOPs) under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA)....

Yea but a lot might see a boobie, can you image the horror.
Content filtering solutions are imperfect but it’s good enough and easy enough to use at home if you need to.
Worst case, your kid learns to bypass content filtering and sparks a career in IT or something.

Then just use one of the existing content filtering/ parental control tools for your home network?

I don’t see the benefit of another privacy invasion when there’s already solutions for this exact problem.

Then have a nice day, I guess
