Hexbear Proposals chapo.chat matrix room.
This will be a place for site proposals and discussion before implementation on the site.
Every proposal will also be mirrored into a pinned post on the hexbear community.
Any other ideas for helping to integrate the two spaces are welcome to be commented here or messaged to me directly.
Within Hexbear Proposals you can see the history of all site proposals and react to them, indicating a vote for or against a proposal.
Sending messages will be restricted to verified and active hexbear accounts older than 1 month with their matrix id in their hexbear user profile.
All top level messages within the channel must be a Proposals (idea for changing the site), Feedback (regarding non-technical aspects of the site, for technical please use https://hexbear.net/c/feedback), or Appeals (regarding admin/moderator actions).
Discussion regarding these will be within nested threads under the post.
To gain matrix verification, all you need to do is navigate to my hexbear userprofile and click the send a secure private message including your hexbear username.
I don't think I really need to explain much, their admins are transphobic.

Snowe, an admin, complained about a transgender person being offended over being misgendered. Ategon made an apology post but keeps snowe on, no public apologies from snowe to the transgender people affected.
Textbook 
note: conversation about Ategon's use of the word triggered edited out, might be misunderstanding, need clarified
To be fair,
They're throwing snowe under the bus and openly blame them for it further down. This is a bit of context that I guess is kinda excusing it, although in my opinion your third party program messing up an interaction with someone is a problem that could easily be resolved by realizing you made a mistake and fixing it, which snowe of course didn't do. So maybe they're giving too much credit to a bad admin but I don't think they're really defending the behavior.
I think the triggered has an unclear antecedent, but I read it as "a branch of the conversation was triggered (as in caused/set off)" not "a user was triggered."
That said, I don't really have strong feelings about programming.dev. They don't seem to show up here much but it's a mixed bag when they do.
hm i guess
i havent seen anyone say those words that way. also got a minor case of bilingual brain so that might be it too. continuing to keep someone on the admin team that did that and still has yet to apologize to the people affected is a dick move, still.
regardless, the comments are a cesspool in that thread, grounds enough to defed imo
It would be a weird usage, but people definitely use in a comparable way when talking about video games (event flags and such), so a programmer would be the one to make that stylistic oversight. I can't tell you it's definitely what the admin meant, but it's worth asking.
I read it how you read it and English is my first language. But I do agree I rarely see programming.dev users and when I do, its a mixed bag. I don't have a dog in this race though being from lemmygrad.
The app I use doesn't do display names so I'm also in the same situation with not seeing pronouns. But I have the better sense to use someone's username if I was unsure.
yeah i can see it either way due to the context, weird sentence.
The argument that they're using "triggered in a programming sense" is more reason to defed. What it really is is an appeal to nerd identity politics. These people revolve their identity around some lame nerd subculture, and any conflict with them turns into them thinking "wow these normies just don't understand me, a super special computer toucher!!!!!". It's insufferable whiny BS I have to deal with enough of in real life.
It's also why every "tech" community devolves into nerds whining about culture wars BS instead of actual technical discussion. They're more interested in identifying as a programmer than the actual content of programming.
This is exactly something that happens around these parts as well tbh
