GitHub screenshot: gmta commented 1 hour ago: Hi @denisdefreyne! We have had the long-standing rule in our project that we do not concern ourselves with controversial topics as to not alienate anyone who'd like to join in the project. This includes topics like geopolitics, ideology, religion, spirituality, drugs, sex, sexuality and gender. You've probably made this PR with good intentions, but as it stands it is considered to be against the aforementioned rule. Objectively the grammar fixes are good, but mentioning "they/them" (while not using "them" in the changes), pronouns, and relating it to males makes this PR a focal point for heated discussions. We are fine with drive-by changes like these as long as they are in context of a good change, and are not referring to anything that breaks one of our rules as outlined on our Discord. Feel free to make a useful technical change that includes grammar fixes like these, but please refrain from putting it in the context of anything that breaks our rules. Thank you for bringing it to our attention however, and the maintainers are going to reevaluate the rules to see if they need to be more specific or otherwise updated. For now, closing this. gmta closed this 1 hour ago.
