I’ve gone through this Discourse install and tried to replace every instance of “user” with “person” (and “users” with “people”.) It’s always annoyed me that the software has to treat us like things… users… The objectification shall continue until morale improves…
Anyway, I like finding “People” in the ≡ menu, and “People” in the admin interfaces.
Doesn’t sound like it seems silly to you… And while I am numb to the term “user” after 35+ years of being online, I totally hear what you’re saying and appreciate your concern for small details like this.
