Hmm. I just read the github thread that this is about. The devs made a mistake on this; but it seems to me that there is a bit of an over-reaction here. The people in the thread seem to be discussing it calmly and politely; and the issue (i.e. use of pronouns in the build instructions) ends up being resolved. By contrast, the reaction outside of the actual thread… is extreme.
Like I said, this seems like an overreaction to someone making a mistake of ignorance & indifference. It wasn’t an act of malice.
Please describe to me how someone who offered up changes to change “he” to “they” for them, and then the contributor getting pissy about “politics” is denying work.
All this because they won’t change a “he” into “they” ?
Who gives a fuck about such rampant whiteknightism ?
Why does a browser even need to know your gender ?
In what context even is there a pronoun in the user interface ?
You could find out the context by reading the title of the thread, but then you’d have less to bitch about, so I can understand why you chose ignorance.
you shouldn’t use this browser the devs are transphobic sexist chuds

Appears to be fixed now: https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/pull/24648
they must be trying to go after the brave marketshare
Why don’t ya’ll contribute some meaningful code instead of finding ways to deny those who do

Yeah, I saw this, and all my excitement for the project died. If it becomes successful, I might use it anyway though.
