I looked into it some months ago and if I’m not mistaken the dev referred to a “user profile” as “he” in an installation instruction text.
Then someone made a suggestion to change it to “they” and he answered that he didn’t want politics in his project.
My thoughts were that “they” didn’t fit and if changed, “user profile” should be “it” and not “they”.
He didn’t change it to “it” either though… It’s really not clear if it’s just bad English, a case of don’t tell me what to do or full blown bigotry.
My vote, at least for now, goes to overblown drama.
If he didn’t change it after his 8 year old yt video his instructions are definitely different:
Did you watch his video or follow a written instruction? I noticed you can’t rely on those anymore… My guess is AI slop, that gets it ever so slightly wrong each time, always go straight to the source nowadays.
