    It wasn’t right for people to bandwagon and harass the project, but that doesn’t mean he was right for closing this PR in the way he did. Him closing this PR is what caused the project to be attacked, not part of the attacks.

      Years later is ridiculous and unwarranted, it’s looking for someone to attack.

        Can you direct me to where he has apologized or reversed course at all in the years since?

        Or do you think that we’re just supposed to forgive over time without evidence that any improvement has occurred?

          You mean when he said he had nothing against gender-neutral language but rather drive-by PRs and made the change?

          Technically, in a later PR they merged a more gender neutral language, but I don’t think there was any official apology to the community.

          I don’t comment anything negative, so far as I remember, against Ladybird and decided not to look at the general direction of that project.
