      So you agree with the idea that submitting a “minor nitpick” PR suggesting that the software doesn’t refer to all users as male is “personal politics” and deserves an angry response for even suggesting it?

      You sure do sound like someone who would agree with Lunduke…

      Being a woman or being transgender isn’t “political”. Vocally opposing inclusiveness is asshole behavior.

      Not even mad that he’s not accepting a low-effort PR. It’s trivializing people’s existence as “political” that makes him shitty.

      It wasn’t right for people to bandwagon and harass the project, but that doesn’t mean he was right for closing this PR in the way he did. Him closing this PR is what caused the project to be attacked, not part of the attacks.

          Can you direct me to where he has apologized or reversed course at all in the years since?

          Or do you think that we’re just supposed to forgive over time without evidence that any improvement has occurred?

            Technically, in a later PR they merged a more gender neutral language, but I don’t think there was any official apology to the community.

            I don’t comment anything negative, so far as I remember, against Ladybird and decided not to look at the general direction of that project.
