Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately many of the ones I want to find are “no longer listed” and the internet archive didn’t have any snapshots.

We really ought to prevent any further loss of fertile land. Want to expand housing? Time to build up, our sprawl and lack of PT connections in the fringes of the “city” is getting out of hand.

On the internet whoever you’re conversing with is male unless explicitly stated

“OH mY gOd, aRE yoU a GiRL???” In a game lobby.

Same vibes.

Just reiterating, that the original poster was German as I suspected, and pointing it out might spare them being misunderstood in the future. I have no regrets.

Yeah I guess I reordered it “Just let the user decide themselves…” in my head.

As I guessed the commenter was a German speaker. This is a very common occurrence and not something malicious (check like every boardgame from Germany referring to “the player” as “he”), just lost in translation.

Never meant to be annoying or holier-than-thou, people can genuinely misunderstand that it’s some sexist remark, and so I pointed it out. Just said it so the commenter hopefully isn’t misunderstood in the future.

So, if you feel that’s some woke-ass snowflake nonsense, be my guest lol

Yeah that’s what I guessed! Alles gut :)

Can you blanket block comments from other instances users?

I am not a fan of Beehaw’s decision, but I can’t a setting where you can actually do this.

I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you’re a second language speaker where “user” is a masculine noun, but other genders exist lol. I encourage you to use “themselves” instead.
