It all started with the unofficial godot discord admin dealing with some chuds and people turning their ire towards the Godot Foundation staff instead.

Since Godot has stubbornly remained on the Xitter nazi bar as a valid space for PR and social media interaction and dared to promote the Wokot hashtag and reiterate their progessiveness, the reactionaries infesting that space are now piling on their socials and harassing everyone they can get their eyes on.

Examples

Anyway, solidarity with the targets of harassment. I hope they finally realize that Xitter is a lost cause.

Update: Godot is being review-bombed

Fortunately the reactionary backlash seems to be having the opposite effect

Nice to see some figures on the change in support levels. I was donating €5 a month and I've bumped it up to €50 for the next few months.

I get the impression that a lot of the people complaining on twitter are not even gamedevs and don't know what Godot is, it's just the reactionary pile-on du jour.

You're probably right. Homophobes aren't the brightest of the bunch.

… since when did the project have customers lol?

[–] Kissaki@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

is a service or product receiver only a customer if they are paying money?

I wouldn’t say it has to be money. Just that it has to be a formal exchange. I’d say the open source donation model is more “informal”.

I guess technically businesses like Microsoft were customers; I think there was something about them paying Godot to support C#.
