Thank you, very interesting. I'd always taken gender neutral to include non-heteronormative genders. But I started seeing things like folx - confusing because I hadn't understood the word to be gendered or only gender normative.


> Thank you

Don't you mean "Thanx"?


I think it's a bit unique to folkx because instead of using gendered language (hey guys) folks have moved to hey folks. So I've only seen it on things like that (gender neutral references to other people).
