A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Initially putting the language in could just be thoughtless, but when they make the intentional choice to keep it...

The one who made that response is the lead dev of SerenityOS and presumably Ladybird as well, since he's the one who announced it.

Even if he didn't put that language in, he made the call that that language being in there was not political, but fixing it to be gender-neutral would be political.
