I got called transphobe yesterday for pointing out that most mobile apps don't show display names or profile pictures, meaning the person they replied to wouldn't have had the same information they have.
They went a dozen comments deep with multiple users, screaming transphobe at every single person who disagreed with them.
Some people really need a bit of perspective on the situation.
I think I saw that exchange yesterday. Was it the person that absolutely freaked out over another user being called a male term? (I can't remember exactly what it was, I want to say "son" but I don't think that was it). I use Voyager and I don't see profile pictures or even any descriptions on people's profiles. I didn't even know that existed until that person was freaking out and calling everyone transphobes for not knowing.
That's the one.
Sometimes I just don't understand human behavior.
See, that's the thing. That's not normal human behaviour. That's disgusting antisocial trash. They're exactly like the MAGA clowns just on the other end of the spectrum.
Touché. I've grown exhausted of people becoming so unhinged on the internet. I haven't been on Lemmy long and was thinking most people seemed normal so far... But I guess you're always going to end up coming across unhinged people eventually.
I think breaking peoples profiles is just a Voyager thing
(works fine on Eternity, Jerboa and Racoon)
Looks like they work on Thunder, just disabled by default
I use Boost.
I probably can enable display names and profile pics, but it's mostly just clutter.
Idk how Boost handles it, but on Jerboa and Eternity it doesn't make much of a difference whether it displays profiles properly or not
