I think you should keep reading for 10 more words. I elaborated on exactly what you're talking about in the 10 words after that quote.

How long would you say it takes to change your username and pfp on Matrix if you know exactly what you're doing and have done it plenty of times before? 20 seconds? Pluralkit can do a proxy in 2 seconds. 20 seconds is not an acceptable delay to sending a chat message to most people, but 2 seconds is.
And what if two members of a system are in a conversation, possibly with a third person? Is it going to retroactively change the username and pfp on the old messages? Cause that would turn the conversation to complete nonsense. Imagine I'm having a discussion with some friends, two of whom are in a system, I step away to go to the toilet, and when I come back 5 minutes later I can't tell who was talking in the last 5 minutes.
Well, there are a lot of discord users who are allies and believe in supporting others, and that's why
No, I don't know.
That's really strange, this seems like the sort of Lemmy instance where people would care about accessibility the minute they heard about the issue
Plurality is a lot more common than most people think. The existence of pluralkit exposed a LOT of people to the idea of plurality and got them realising they were already plural. Myself included.
It's kind of like how a lot of lesbians didn't understand their own identities until they heard Katy Perry sing "I kissed a girl".
Furthermore, imagine you're on a server with 500 active members, and there are 5 systems who use pluralkit. That server has probably had the "why are you a bot" "I'm using pluralkit" conversation dozens of times. All 500 people know how important pluralkit is. On Discord, there are dozens of allies for every one system.
