This comment seems to be unnecessarily inflammatory. Your link points to nothing that appears to be political or "affiliated with the GamerGate crowd".
And why would you even bring up the philosophical leanings of the group running this GitLab instance (assuming you are correct). It has no bearing on the discussion at hand. Why try and run the conversation off the rails?
- confounded 8y agoFrom their repos, it’s clear that this particular software community has a strong agenda; rape, incest, and anti-black racism. The site contains the source for other sites that provide paid email/file-sharing services explicitly to “the date rape appreciation society”. I’m very glad that they pointed this out. FOSS code and FOSS communities are successful when their work is used, shared, promoted, and contributed to. I’m all for freedom to be edgy, but this is a dangerous and expressly hateful community, openly devoted to radicalzing young men into hating their own species. They’re only joking, until they’re not.
- onyva 8y agoSecond that and thanks for speaking up.

- cannonedhamster 8y agoTheir logo on sapphire.moe gitgud.io under their services section is a veiled reference to Vivian James, the redheaded clover in hair wearing icon of GamerGate. That's the reference. Also Micheal Sulsenti, one of the people who runs the sapphire.moe account is a self proclaimed "Gamergate leader"
- hottycat3 8y agoLast time I checked GamerGate has no leader and that is by design.
- mintplant 8y ago> And why would you even bring up the philosophical leanings of the group running this GitLab instance In case someone is looking for a new repository host for their next project, so they can avoid inadvertently getting mixed up with a bunch of drama and hate.
- badsectoracula 8y agoThat is kinda ironic.
