yes because how a factory produces goods is independent from its workers well being, right?
code is made by people, pushing away good contributors will lead to worse code, stressing contributors will lead to worse code, splitting contributor communities will lead to worse code
if you really only care about code quality why are you bothered by identity talk? leave it to those affected and go back looking at code
comparing with mullvad is ridiculous and just shows how much you drank the apple juice without questioning
- mullvad doesn’t hold your contact info, like apple right?
- mullvad is open source so you can independently verified which data is being sent, just like apple right?
- mullvad claims to not log anything, like apple and their csam thing on icloud right?
“leave alone the multi billion dollar corporation” energy
“us/them” mentality doesn’t help much. this is surely a great fuss for a 3 year old pr but you’re misrepresenting the situation:
- serenityOS (and consequently ladybird) has rather strict rules about wording documentation: they enforce language style and even date formats
- that wasn’t a report, but a PR: rather than pressing ~50 keys on your keyboard and then a “lock” button he could have just pressed the “merge” button and integrated those ~10 total characters changes
- github issues are routinely used to fix wording: documentation often lives on git and it’s useful to have it version controlled, even plain documents without attached source are kept on git so that their edit history is accessible and manageable
folks are making a big fuss but Andreas really set himself up: just say sorry and change 4 words, such a weird horse to die on

“why we ask you to download an application”

if you’re trying to build a chatroom then any chat software goes but if you’re trying to build a community you should probably use something searchable and indexed, like real community software
also i find it laughable that users must already be on such platform, by your logic all communities should be mailing lists
thanks for saying this! i really don’t want to victim blame itsfoss for getting traffic spikes but if you cant handle ~20MB in one minute (~400kbps) of traffic you’re doing something really really wrong and you really should look into it, especially if you want to distribute content. crying “dont share our links on mastodon” also sounds like hunting windmills, block the mastodon UA and be done with it, or stop putting images in your link previews for mastodon, or drop link previews completely. a “100 mb DDOS” is laughable at best, nice amplification calculation but that’s still 100 megs
there are plenty of articles about regrets and resources about detransition, those who get shouted down usually try to use ridiculously low regret rates as reasoning to limit access to healthcare. marriage has a 43% regret rate, why isn’t your energy spent there instead?
