Based on the current architecture, and the features I want to implement, neo-pronouns support is not something I'll be adding. The list of sets would grow exponentially and would become unmaintainable, or I'd need to add custom pronouns and moderate the platform usage (for offensive stuff) and this is a strict no from me.
I want to add internationalization support in the future, and neo-pronouns are very much english-only and make for not very amazing i18n. Just with the current sets it's a problem for some languages! Sure I can skip them, but it's not a path I want to take.
PronounDB is a side project I don't want to put tons of time in it, and that's sadly incompatible with adding support of neo-pronouns. Some people will say there are sets that are less used than some neo-pronouns. Maybe, maybe not. I just made all combinations possible.
Some suggested supporting "popular" neo-pronouns, which is something I don't feel confident with either.
