Do you happen to know why it's "keine Ursache"? That is a thing in Danish and Norwegian too ("ingen årsak") and I always thought it was a weird phrase.

"De nada"? Which is really confusing as that is Spanish and "Danke" is from German.

I'd sneak a peek at some other league and do whatever they did.

When I say "avoid using 'female'" (specifically as a noun to mean "woman") it's not an absolute. The gist is just to not come off like a fedora-tipping twat. Sometimes it's used intentionally to objectify or demean "females" in general, or using the "woman/female" distinction as some sort of pointed transphobic shtick.

It's still a perfectly cromulent word as long as it doesn't get neckbeardy.

But your point was that this is actively keeping people on Discord? By extension, that must mean that a significant bulk of those 150M users are kept on Discord because it has PluralKit. How do you reconcile that with the group of plurals being, apparently, quite small? To the point where even on Beehaw/Lemmy almost nobody seems to even have heard of it.

Interesting argument. I'd be curious if you know roughly how many plural people there are (let's say headcounts as there's only one body) compared to Discord's user base. (150 million active users per month according to random half-assed google search)

Male and female are biological terms. Mostly "man/woman" are more appropriate unless you're specifically talking about biological sex. Particularly since a certain bunch of people is now using "females" with a bit of underlying vitriol, it'd be a good idea to stay away from it.

I use Facebook pretty indirectly, mostly Messenger and the odd birthday or event. Calling it enjoyment is pushing it pretty far, though.
