Is "my" considered a pronoun though ? Genuine question

Boo. This is the left version of the attack helicopter meme.
Last time no have pronoun
Ape together strong
Imo mocking the term they use ("pronouns") harms the cause. Mocking incorrect usage of the word doesn't do anything but provoke eye rolling. They don't mean literally all pronouns and they know we know. Mocking them like this just gives them an easy out and makes uncertain readers feel like they're not being taken seriously, thereby pushing them towards the right.
I disagree
Back in my day, pronoun't.
Wait till they find out about Spanish
No nos hacen falta tantos pronombres porque conjugamos los verbos :)
Y todos los estudiantes de español tienen problemas con eso. (Al menos que ya hablen una idioma similar....)
Pero los estoy aprendiendo.... lentamente.
Way back when, yet still in memory, there were no pronouns.
"there" is a pronoun in your example. You're saying "pronouns were not there" in a ye-olden format, and "there" is standing in for a place (meaning has changed over time).
'Way back when, yet still in memory, English had no pronouns."
Nice!
[Sincere] Thank you for the explanation!
I'm not a native speaker, but wouldn't it be an adverb?

depends on the use, but in this situation I'm leaning towards definition #2
