Ah yes, or the whole “using gender-neutral pronouns is a political move that shouldn’t be allowed” debacle
You mean the dev rejected a BS request that simply wasted his time & served no real purpose, while the project WAS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT & called him a bigot for fun.
If people are willing to let the rejection of a single code comment change for misguided reasons make them stop supporting a project completely, I suppose they can enjoy the Apple/Microsoft/Google/Mozilla monopoly on web browsers.
Wow you are a rare breed of reasonable people, why aren’t there more of you
Thanks. I have a lot of respect for people who put time, effort and what little money they have into a project benefitting a community.
My patience is shorter for people that make noise about these projects conforming to unrealistic standards or making a big fuss over trivial matters, (particularly in an armchair quarterback manner). FOSS project developers deserve a lot of slack, and making mountains out of molehills only serve to discourage people’s drive to continue contributing to open projects. Identifying issues is fine, but jumping to conclusions following a slight miscommunication by an ESL developer labelling them a bigot is not helpful for anyone.
There’s a big difference between the Proton+ Andy Yen thing vs. this for example. I was willing to give the former the benefit of doubt initially, but since the official Proton accounts doubled down on mirroring Yen’s opinions, that convinced me that Proton’s ideals will follow Yen’s support of Trump rather than pursuing goals independent of its founder.
Also on another topic, I really wish there were more opensource communities on different lemmy/Mbin/PieFed instances
Lemmy.ML is simply not good enough
