New Gnome Code of Conduct - It's pretty bad tbh

Wow this explains a lot about Gnome. Recently revisited it and I can’t believe how it has not innovated in any aspect and seems to just copy other environments just worse.

Back in the day there was a mass migration to it when Ubuntu dropped it for there own “Unity” environment which many people hated.

People hated gnome 3 but it was less radical then unity so people used it until other/better environments came in. It seems that during this push they onboarded some gender bending Cumbrians and seems they would rather waste time writing partisan terms of service rather than, you know...actually make a good product people want to use.

Should mention that this is also part of Red Hat who are all in “Trans girls in Tech” and Burning the human resources money.
 
FTFY

Remember. KDE uses QT, which was developed by TROLLTECH.
Gnome uses GTK, which was mangled by mentally ill cockchoppers.

Are you a proud troll? Or a suicidal autogynophile?

Do the developers of your widget toolkit proudly sauna in the nude? Or are they afraid to post 'normal' pictures of their deformed form without using Photoshop (not the GIMP) on their MacBooks (not ThinkPads)?
Qt, unlike GTK (Gnome) is a traded company, seeking profit. So their pandering should be secondary to actually delivering a functional product and money.

What's the deal with the perceived injustice of not liking them for not drinking?
Another step toward the inevitable demand that acting like a six year-old at all times regardless of age should be something both socially protected and accepted.

It's mandating the defense of people who willingly infantilize themselves.
 
I've no idea where this stuff comes from. The tech places I like to hang out online usually have extremely stringent but unstated policies: if you're not talking about the tech or potential ideas for the tech, you are off-topic and will get kicked if you keep it up. Keep the language professional. Fuck off with memes. All git commit messages should follow a stated template and all comments should stick to the fucking point.

Same goes at the conferences I've attended. You listen to a talk, then you congregate and talk shop. And then you go home.

Then I watched this mess which somehow segues a conversation about broken interfaces in UNIX to a discussion of white male privilege. If this is the norm now, I'm out.
 
What the fuck, so producing black gnomes like this will now be illegal because some snowflake thinks it's "racist"? This is a big setback to collectors like me, and to the whole garden gnome community

no one cares about tech talk or skills anymore. It's 2020. the internet as it was once known is now controlled by a handful of media conglomoretes that dominated the previous music and movie industries. By forcing entire countries to bend over backwards for retarded 50 year old business models and them actually complying has ruined it further.

then you have places like Canada where you can just roll a dice and choose your assigned sex at any moment you want. Then all the old forums and tech places that used to use text replies including "faggot" "poof" "queer cunt" have all been long conned into accepting a tranny. Then another tranny. then before you know it the entire place is filled with trannies telling all the old users to piss off or get banned. This is replaced by NEW users, often fucked up trannies.

then you get something like neofag or resetera
 
I've never used GNOME, then again I'm just a newfag to Linux. Is this CoC cancer going to metastasize? I'm currently using XFCE on a memepad and liking it so far.
 
Seriously, what's with these tech junkies and being the worst kind of insufferable left-wing stereotypes that you can imagine?

Besides, there's already a proper term for "reverse racism." Guess what it is?

racism

Codes of Conduct like this are always so anti human normalcy, it's like they're written by aliens with no concept of humor or emotions, or just by an A.I. that somehow developed the ability to be severely autistic.

I imagine the entire code of conduct being read in the voice of Fuck-Bot 5000 except with all the rapey shit and humor surgically removed.

Also, humor is an outdated concept, as it is racist and triggering. It's current year and it's not my job to educate you to be on the right side of history!

This is the complete opposite however.

Most code of conducts are written very methodically and “autistic“ because they have to be held up in a court of law.

This code of conduct couldn’t really be held up in a court of law. How do you prove someone was maliciously “Misgendering” What emoji’s can and can’t be considered “sexual“? What’s considered convent to receive electronic communications?
 
Aren't you tired of the words: privilege, racism, feminism, patriarchy, cis, trans, gender, etc? This LGBTQ+ shit is getting rotten all around. We need some nukes.

Exactly why I refuse to associate with them. Just be who you want to be and don't assault others for who they want to be.

If you're not harming anyone, I won't harm you. That's a personal philosophy of mine.

Oh, I agree that it lacks enforceable clarity, it just strikes me as written by an entity with so little comprehension of normal social conduct that they believe even emoji usage is a thing that actually needs to be explicitly regulated in order to create a stable environment for human interaction.
 
This is what probably bothers me the most. It's a fucking emoji. What kind of thin-skinned, soy-chugger, post-millennialist thinks it's an offense to get a "kiss" emoji under whatever circumstance? How is it possible that someone gets so raving mad for an ICON that they feel the need to include it in their CoC?
Imagine your ugly fat troon boss ends every message to you with a string of kissy faces, two eggplants and a peach.

I would probably reply with: eggplant, spit, vomit, policeman

For real, who the fuck gives a shit?

Edit: Probably the same kind of faggot who gets triggered by the forum ratings :story:
