This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Wait hold on. Are you shaming someone for not knowing what gender someone named "nakari" is? Cuz if that's the case you better sign me up for not knowing either.
EDIT: googled this name that I've never heard before and the top results said it's unisex. So uhhhh.....
Probably a good enough reason for folks to ask if someone sees pronouns before trying to shame them. This isn't the first time I've seen this discrepancy on Lemmy.
What the butts is going on here? Does lemmy.one show different usernames than lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone and sopuli.xyz?
No clue, could be instances, could be apps. I've definitely seen comments of "don't you see their pronouns?" And the answer is genuinely, no. So I suspect it has something to do with that mechanism.
One is the username, the other is the display name. The client can show either of them. Mine (Thunder) let's you configure that.
