Hexbear Proposals chapo.chat matrix room.
This will be a place for site proposals and discussion before implementation on the site.
Every proposal will also be mirrored into a pinned post on the hexbear community.
Any other ideas for helping to integrate the two spaces are welcome to be commented here or messaged to me directly.
Within Hexbear Proposals you can see the history of all site proposals and react to them, indicating a vote for or against a proposal.
Sending messages will be restricted to verified and active hexbear accounts older than 1 month with their matrix id in their hexbear user profile.
All top level messages within the channel must be a Proposals (idea for changing the site), Feedback (regarding non-technical aspects of the site, for technical please use https://hexbear.net/c/feedback), or Appeals (regarding admin/moderator actions).
Discussion regarding these will be within nested threads under the post.
To gain matrix verification, all you need to do is navigate to my hexbear userprofile and click the send a secure private message including your hexbear username.
I am very new and very dumb. 
I will most likely not detect sarcasm and struggle without explicit instructions. 
I am on mobile currently. I'm supposed to be asleep. I am not asleep. I'm hyperfixated on new internet place.
I haven't quite figured out the UI yet but it might just not be optimized for mobile. Is there an app or should I just wait until I get back on my PC?
Hello and welcome!
You can set your pronouns in top right hamburger menu - [your name] - settings, and then pronouns should be the first thing in the list. You need to scroll down a bit for the Save button.
Thank you!! I got it now!! There were so many :o
Was hoping I'd see mirror pronouns as an option, but it's ok!
Is there a way to request pronoun options?
I believe you just have to DM one of the admins. I don't know who usually handles the pronouns, but @[email protected] would most likely be able to help
The pronoun option "mirror/your pronouns" are now available
I'll ask in the mod chat
Glad that got handled for you! Our admins are really good when it comes to this, the best.
If you don't mind, I've never encountered these pronouns and would want to hear your explanation for how to use them to address you!
Id also enjoy reading about the why/how for your pronouns, but I won't pry for that info. If you are the type to happily share such info, though, feel free!
Of course! If someone uses mirror pronouns, it just means they want to be referred to by whatever pronouns you use. If two people with mirror pronouns want to refer to each other, usually there are backup pronouns (my backup is they/them) to keep things from getting confusing xD
Not everyone will be comfortable using mirror pronouns because if you are dysphoric towards a particular gender, someone of the gender you're dysphoric with would refer to you with pronouns you're not comfortable with.
However, I consider myself agender, and while I don't want to be percieved as any particular gender, I also want to be friendlier with people and hope that "matching" the person I'm talking to will make developing friendships easier.
Other people may have different motivations, but that one is mine. Since I only get dysphoric when someone assumes I'm a gender they don't like (not even sure if that's dysphoria tbh) I'd rather just chameleon to whoever I'm talking to.
I'm speaking with someone who uses he/him? I'd prefer he uses he/him to describe me.
I'm speaking with someone who uses she/they? I'd prefer they use she/they to describe me.
This applies to every kind of pronoun.
All 7 of them?
Not all at the same time haha But any of the ones you prefer are fine!
Thanks! That was a very nice description and a cool take on pronouns. Hope you enjoy your stay here at Hexbear!
Mirror pronouns have been added to the options now btw
