Be careful about taking one open source project and then using it to paint all open source projects.
Toxicity exists everywhere. It's just that in open source projects it's a lot more, well, open.
- maxerickson 12y agoIs there somewhere a clear explanation of social toxicity? I get that people use it to label things they don't like, it just seems like it is used as a catch all. For instance, is bluntness that occasionally comes across as rudeness toxic? Is the use of expletives toxic? Etc. I think something like excessive, pointless rudeness probably fits under toxic as a category, but it also more useful to just say that such and such is rude.
