The “Display Name” field is where you can set it to your user + pronouns. I changed mine here to show you as an example. Using Jerboa btw.
There may be a character length limit to a Display Name which is what is preventing you from appending yours to your username.
Yep, that’s exactly what it is! Not sure why I didn’t think of that possibility, but thanks!
Glad I could help you out.

Oh, I never thought of this! My name is kind of long, so I bet that’s why. I’ll try it.
I just tested it and putting
test [he/him]
as my display name worked fine. I’m using Liftoff though. maybe try doing it straight from the Beehaw site if you’re doing it through an app?I tried it on both Jerboa and in Firefox browser on a Windows PC :/
I think you have to put them in your display name, alongside your actual display name.
It won’t save when I try that
I think there’s like a 20-24 character limit for display names.
That’s exactly what it was! I’ll have to shorten my username.
I had exactly this problem. It’s super annoying that there’s no error message explaining the character limit.
Yeah, I agree! I thought it was either an issue with the space or with the brackets.
