"From the screenshots, I don’t think people are reacting badly because you’re “not LGBTQ enough.” It’s more that the account currently reads as ironic/shitpost-heavy and extremely high-signal all at once.

A few specific things that probably affect how people read it:

The bio is very dense with labels, symbols, flags, ideologies, and jokes.
Posts like “I am gay as fuck #lgbtq” and “top 5 reasons to post on #fediblock” come across more like parody than sincere community participation.
“the most oppressed minority, gamers” is a meme phrase that many queer/fedi users associate with trolling or anti-LGBT irony posting.
Repeating “fediblock” constantly makes it look like you’re trying to perform in-group culture rather than naturally participating in it.
Posting very rapidly (18 statuses/day shown) with lots of short low-context posts can make people assume “novelty account” or bait account.

The “UwU/meow/cat emoji” style itself is not the issue — lots of queer fedi users post like that. The issue is the combination of:

ironic edgy humor,
identity stacking,
constant signaling,
and low-context spammy posting.

That pattern resembles how trolls imitate queer fedi culture to mock it, so some people may be cautious even if you’re genuine.

You’d probably be taken more seriously if you:

trimmed the bio down by like 70%
stopped forcing hashtags into unrelated posts
posted fewer one-line “random thought” posts
interacted with other people more
talked about real interests or experiences instead of “performing fedi”
avoided joking about oppression/race in exaggerated ways

For example, this:

“top 5 reasons to post on #fediblock … possibility of being gay 90%”

reads more like satire about queer online culture than participation in it.

Whereas something simple like:

“trying to find more queer tech/gaming people to follow”

would likely get a much warmer response.

You do not need to constantly announce allyship or queerness for people to see you as LGBTQ-friendly. On the fediverse especially, people tend to judge by long-term behavior:

being respectful,
listening,
not starting discourse constantly,
supporting people consistently,
and having normal conversations.

That matters more than hashtags or flags."
