How does mandating 2FA get them any closer to that second point? If they wanted to start with that, they could. They're two separate issues.

- bjt2n3904 4y agoThe entirety of the last decade in open source software development can be summarized as this: it is morally reprehensible for your project to not support the causes du jour. You must adopt a COC. You must rename your branch from "master" to "main". You must use "inclusive" language in your documentation. Why? Because you must assume the responsibility for everything your project touches. A bad person uses your leftpad.js to perpetuate badness. You must stop them. Someone might get their feelings hurt. You must preemptively protect them. This is an impossible task. 2FA is fine, sure. I use it myself, and advocate for others to do so as well. But I'm sick and tired of the "harm reduction" mantra that means I have to entirely rewrite my documentation every 6 months.
- kevinh 4y agoIf the last decade has been all about that, then clearly a 2FA mandate won't lead to it, since it's already here. FWIW, I have multiple open source projects. I don't have a COC. I haven't renamed any of my branches. I haven't gotten any pushback.
