Would there be interest in adding pronoun roles that anyone can give themself?

Color me mildly interested. Not so much to express my own preferences, but mostly to make it easier to look up other people's preferences (though I'll happily cooperate by also using the feature for myself).

Re: General meta thread
To clarify, this would just mean being able to put pronouns under your username instead of in your signature

Re: General meta thread
Well, while mucking about in the admin screen I found something that would probably be better.
There is now a "pronouns" field in user profiles that can be changed in the user control panel.

Cool, I've gone and changed mine - to he/him!
After reading this: https://kconrod.medium.com/the-presiden ... 276b34860d
I always wanted to try he/him pronouns (I'm a cis woman) so hey, let's give it a shot on here, just for fun!

Re: General meta thread
"he/him" isn't on the image though (it's off-camera to the left)
โฆOh! You were looking at the locked-up million-dollar one. That's capitalized "He/Him", the pronouns for God and Jesus (along with the royal we).
