Original Title: If someone tells you that their pronouns are e.g. cloudself, xyr, xir and tells you to refer them by those pronouns, would you do it? And also, is this American/western things (I mean weird pronouns)?

I met someone, A, in a Facebook group that I joined and we chatted on messenger. A identified as non-binary and A told me that A's pronouns are cloud/cloudself. I was a bit surprised. I've never heard that kind of pronouns before.
