See I'd say the definition of censorship is saying a word is bad and preventing you from saying it, even if you disagree.
And git isn't preventing you from having a master branch. In fact, they're providing instructions for people who prefer that.
- foobarkey 11mo agoMaking you fee like less of a person for using the word is also censorship but in a more clever mean gaslighting way than a full order :)
- pyth0 11mo agoThis seems like a you problem. I have quite a few repos made before using "main" was the default in GitHub or Git. I have not changed them, and I have never spent more than 5 seconds thinking about it, let alone worrying about being considered "less of a person" because of it.
- collingreen 11mo agoCareful, you're almost arguing the points of "the other side" you seem to detest so much!
- oluwie 11mo agoyou keep using that word but i don’t think it means what you think it means
- ash_091 11mo agoIn the spirit of genuine curiosity, who is making you feel like less of a person wrt the choice of main/master, and how are they doing that? It sounds like you're saying that git maintainers are intending for you to feel like less of a person because you don't agree with their choice, but I don't understand how you arrived at that conclusion.
