Upstream lemmy doesn’t want them because it’s too english-specific and they desperately want lemmy to be general purpose software that can be used by anyone in any language so pronouns are a no-go. It’s mostly admirable but sometimes they miss IMO. They want a general purpose flair system and are amenable to having pronouns be configurable as a mandatory flair, but that’s a lot of development effort so it hasn’t happened for like 2 years running
