I see this phrase used a lot on blahaj lemmy. I’m actually bi but I don’t really like using the word ‘folk’ over ‘people’… it just kinda sounds pretentious, I don’t want to be described like a mythical creature

    Agreed. “Black folk” has been in the vernacular for a long time for this reason. “Queer folk” is just a extension of that custom.
