kidchai@OpenSourceUpdates got the idea and liked it. But just to be correct, here is an Apple logo from the 70s. They don’t change their logo for Pride Month at all. Instead, they release the Pride edition of the Apple Watch and design Pride wallpapers. And they still doing it.
Pierre@kidchai @OpenSourceUpdates nah, they are just saving the big announcement for Monday, it is not just a new UI language, they are going back to the old logo!

@vurpo Do you mind enlighting me ?
@baalroga They hired a cop and were proud of it on their mastodon, and when people disapproved or criticised them for it, their account went off the rails and eventually blocked everyone who said anything
@vurpo holy shit ! I guess I won't buy my first for a long time
@baalroga after it was all over, we got the famous quote "That crowd is not law enforcement friendly" from them

purple: licenced to sticky plaster@vurpo @baalroga I'm not sure the ex-cop bit was even entirely the problem, some people would probably always have been put off by it but I suspect in-and-of-itself most people wouldn't have cared much.
The issue came that their ‘maker background’ wasn't ‘weather stations are cool’ or such, it was ‘well my last job, as a cop, was to make wildly unethical and possibly actually illegal devices and rpi was handy for that’ …and like, rpi thought this was somehow good.

I'll add up to that a little bit. Lately wanted to by am second-hand RPi to not support them directly and because of the ecosystem.
Seems that each time I'm looking around the prices are higher than retail and I'm each time shelving a potential project, as I don't want to solve this moral triangle.
Max von Webel@OpenSourceUpdates @isotopp @elementary @raspberrypi @kde @gnome @SUSE @vala_lang @GTK The 2024 Apple clearly isn’t a 2024 pride Apple but the classic Apple logo before 1997.
Jacket@343max @OpenSourceUpdates @isotopp @elementary @kde @gnome @SUSE @vala_lang @GTK I think it's not the exact same color.
Ember is so tired of people. 
@OpenSourceUpdates real support doesn't hire surveillance cops and boast about it on mastodon (looking at you, raspberry)

aceryz@OpenSourceUpdates There's a big difference between rainbow-washing and support. Most companies do the former.
Tzimisce Flesh@OpenSourceUpdates @elementary @[email protected] @kde @gnome @SUSE @vala_lang @GTK The core difference being that a lot of the mentioned projects are full of queers that get to influence decisions.
@flesh @gnome @kde @elementary @GTK @SUSE @vala_lang @OpenSourceUpdates absolutely this
And its best if the project isnt owned by a cishet techbro
@OpenSourceUpdates It Warms My Heart Knowing What True Support And Actual Friends are
Feike 🇪🇺🇳🇱 🚫👑@OpenSourceUpdates @elementary @raspberrypi @kde @gnome @SUSE @vala_lang @GTK @fedora the Apple logo was always a rainbow.

Pietro di Caprio@OpenSourceUpdates real support is everyday with actions, not one month per year with a logo on social media
@OpenSourceUpdates real support is not making differences. Real support is not seeing with different eyes.
Highlithing that you note the person in front of you is non-binary is a form of non supporting, non respect, since you are actually making a difference in your behavior.
@pietrodc0 I fully agree that real support is about actions every day. But visible symbols also matter, especially when LGBTQ+ people are still being marginalized, erased, or attacked. A Pride logo doesn’t replace action - it complements it. Silence, on the other hand, speaks volumes.
