Thanks for posting. In the .Net world we had the whole Moq library drama recently. Now I check the social media of library creators before I use the library. I'm sorry but I cannot trust deranged people's code in production systems.

What the hell are those god-awful notifications that keep spamming the bottom right corner of the page? I can't seem to turn them off.

  There's a bell icon in the header, it toggles the real-time notifications. Took me a minute to find it too.

  Would be fine if they didn’t cover the content on the page, but maybe that’s a mobile problem.

I just checkout out the chat functionality and the first thing I saw there was a a bunch of obscene racists messages in Russian.

  Where do you see "commmunists"? Did you check the link? The chat functionality is full of racist messages in Russian.

  This is a bit more than a 'wrong political opinion', this is outright support for genocide. "The Nazi plague must to be eradicated from Ukrainian society. " Fuck that shit.

    Yep. When someone holds a view like that, they come off as an unstable or delusional person. Using a product from such a person can quickly become a liability.

    This is almost verbatim translation of the top putin’s propagandist.

to each his own, but I can't really use a computer without implicating myself with software written by people with totally different ethics/philosophy/politic than myself; in fact I think that no one can. if you find a software stack that aligns itself perfectly with any single dogma (outside maybe TempleOS) then let me know, but right now that seems like a pipe dream. I mean, just as food for thought, is there any common-use cryptography without major ties to war parties and national security groups? aside: I can think of plenty of more practical reasons to avoid a net-facing forum software written in asm in 2023.

  I don't think it's a black-or-white thing. You weigh pros and cons. Linus can be a bit of a jerk but the Linux kernel is immensely useful to me, so I use it in spite of some misgivings. This software, on the other hand, is mostly a fun curiosity and the author is promoting actual genocide. So in this case I'll say no thanks.

Ugh, yeah. That's unfortunate.

It's an indication that someone can be a good programmer while still lapping up Putin's propaganda. On a related note, I somewhat recently posted just the link to the very religious SQLite ethics page on Facebook - which immediately flagged it as some objectionable something or other. Just a link to a web page of one of the most popular open source packages on the planet which Facebook itself no doubt uses. They're so incredibly leftist that their algorithms can't even abide linking to a religiously oriented page.

While this is mainly a technical discussion forum, I am a bit disappointed to see the comment linking to the author’s political views posted on their own forum as being flagged. This is relevant information for people deciding whether to support, use, or be affiliated with this project.

  Agreed. That comment doesn't seem to break any rules. Is "flagged" something that just means enough people downvoted it, or does it require moderator intervention?
