    This is not about “the FOSS community”. It doesn’t matter if you developed closed-source or open-source, doesn’t matter if you license your software with AGPL or NULA, if you make a comment that’s seemingly transphobic/misogynistic, people WILL freak out.

    The reason you might see this occur more frequently in open-source spaces could be sue to the fact that issue trackers and PRs provide much less filtered responses than corporate social media accounts and blogs.
