Are pronouns actually mandatory on Hex?
you're allowed to set them to none/use name if you really prefer, but pronouns are always displayed yes
it's part of what has made hexbear the friendliest space to be trans (period imo, but especially online)
Yes.
Like you can link me to something that says that?
Just try to make an account without pronouns on hexbear, you'll see it is impossible.
Yes.
Yes, and we banned everyone who didn't want them mandatory. Because using optional pronouns is just a magnet for "this person is trans, dm them 'you will never be woman, kys'" from Nazis. If everyone uses pronouns display, it is normalized.
Yes, but you can choose any/none/use name if you dont want it listed
