yeah but does that affect the browser development process significantly?
there are people with differing views in this world and you need to accept that if you want to actually achieve things
I'm not saying i agree with him bc I don't, but I wouldn't base my opinion on the project on the small grievance i have with one dev's opinions.
It is just disappointing. But people forget that there are many FOSS projects that we widely use where the developers have shitty ignorant opinions. Maybe peoples uproar is directly related to the refusal to merge a simple grammar change, which seems very anti-open source. Or maybe that the Dev has a code of conduct that speaks about inclusivity which they weaponized to justify not merging, as to be "politically-inclusive" (aka some people dont believe that "they" can be used for one person lmao). It just feels like they are choosing a weird hill to die on and also being a hypocrite by being so intentional obtuse, and of course the devs abrasive and accusatory method of responding on multiple occasions.
I think it is harder to separate the Dev from their creation when it relates to open source. It really is a passion of the heart a lot of the time. But that doesn't make the tech any less interesting.
I see your argument and I agree, but I just believe that with these talented/intelligent/passionate (valuable imo) people it's better to dedicate their limited valuable time to things they exceed at, not time for them to "correct" their sometimes ignorant opinions. We can ignore their ignorance, we can't replace their value.
When getting people to "correct" their opinions, my opinion is that they're far more likely to learn to mask their opinions, having to be constantly conscious of how others will respond to what they're saying and reducing their work throughput in the process.
Poor behavior can be corrected. Ignoring bigotry and letting it slide hurts others. That’s not acceptable
Poor behavior can be corrected.
It can only be corrected if the person actually starts believing that the "correct" idea is actually correct. That's way harder than for them to simply pretend like they believe the "correct" idea, which they'll obviously do first. Isn't that a waste of time?
I don’t need to accept bigotry. I can just use a different browser.
have fun with google spyware ig when they finally do something like web environment integrity
Or we can just keep using firefox
I like that Firefox exists and I use it and its forks but I really doubt that the aging gecko engine could be made competitive with chromium anytime soon enough to claw back market share to stop google doing shit like web environment integrity. Mozilla stopped work on Servo and they're also kinda sus in terms of how they seem to be fine with receiving funding from google.
