Subreddit refugees be like... - Lemmy.world

I got yelled at on Mastadon for saying refugee, apparently it's offensive to people from war torn countries.
mastadon.social?
https://queer.party/@njion/110533346803997348 it was here. I don't know exactly how it all works yet, but I was looking at a fediverse all feed

i dont see it, i do roll my eyes everytime is see people suggesting that we are somehow required to adopt the culture and ideology of the developer of a project.

its like people are really seeing opensource for the first time and are applying broken logic

It can make sense when the project is small. The developer of a project can have a large voice and you might have to work with them. The massive growth of Lemmy and the federated nature makes the issue moot.

to a degree, lots of people stopped caring about linus's opinion on things shortly after compiling the kernel the first time. A more recent project had its creator run out due to him controlling the PR list.

at the scale of the fediverse the attitude really does surprise me.
