I got yelled at on Mastadon for saying refugee, apparently it's offensive to people from war torn countries.

    Is it really? I feel like people in war torn countries have more important shit to care about. This might be another instance of "terminally online person being offended on someone else's behalf"

    i dont see it, i do roll my eyes everytime is see people suggesting that we are somehow required to adopt the culture and ideology of the developer of a project.

    its like people are really seeing opensource for the first time and are applying broken logic

    It can make sense when the project is small. The developer of a project can have a large voice and you might have to work with them. The massive growth of Lemmy and the federated nature makes the issue moot.
