Many people recognize that gender – how a person identifies, presents themselves and is perceived – has nuances. Some people identify and present as women, others as men, and still others as nonbinary.
But there is a common misconception that biological sex – usually determined by a person’s sex chromosomes, gonads (ovaries or testes) or genitals – is binary. This idea assumes that everyone is biologically either female or male, with no ambiguity or intermediacy.
Why, in 2026, am I forced to read a -50 vote transphobic comment? Does Lemmy just not have the technology to implement a collapse icon that auto-collapses on stupid shit like this?
I could code this in a day. I could have an LLM code this in an hour.
FYI Piefed has this feature, as well as post filtering by keyword
I would be opposed to that feature. I didn’t like it on reddit and I certainly wouldn’t like it here. We already have a block button if we don’t like what someone is saying.
