I like it when people can be proudly and openly gay/trans/bi

??

Maybe we have a different view on what pride means, but I see no reason to be ashamed of being straight, the same I see no reason to be ashamed of being white, the same I see no reason to be ashamed of being gay, the same I see no reason to be ashamed of being black. LGBT+ inclusion is not the same as straight exclusion. Gay pride, from what I understand, at its core is about being proud of yourself and not having to hide your ethnicity. That goes both ways, and I sure as hell would feel like I’m being shamed for being straight in this game. Not a great message is it?

Like I’m genuinely trying to understand here. How is shaming straights helping gay pride?

I feel this is a bit disingenuous. The original Steam forum post said:

when straight comin out.

Calling that even a complaint is beyond me, and mocking the poster seems unnecessary. I don’t understand the intention behind this new title. As purely a joke against that forum post, I guess, but are they trying to mock straight sexuality?

If I can express my sexuality if I’m gay, why refuse that same ability if I’m not? Maybe I’m interpreting too much into it, but I don’t find it funny. I like it when people can be proudly and openly gay/trans/bi, but I don’t see why I can’t also be proudly straight. Or in other words, this game now gives me the message “if you are not LGBT, it’s not for you” which I guess is fine if that’s what they want.

Yeah I agree the table is very odd, but the project looks awesome anyway. Some users may care about things using native widgets when it comes to theming and stuff, though I wouldn’t even know what I’d call “native” on Linux. Is GTK native? Qt?

They explain it a bit here: https://mitchellh.com/writing/ghostty-and-useful-zig-patterns

Also, calling out the warning signs, my bar for a native platform experience is that the app feels and acts like a purpose-built native app. I don’t think this bar is unreasonable. For example, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to say that Alacritty is kind of not native because new windows create new processes. Or that Kitty is kind of not native because tabs use a non-native widget. And so on (there are many more examples for each).

So nothing wrong with Kitty on MacOS e.g., but the “feel” is not native. Personally don’t care too much about that, but the author seems to do.

I’ll never get over how cool animated code folding looked when I first saw it. I love my terminal but man that’s sexy. Reminds me of some of the original demos of Dion. I feel there is definitely room to reinvent how we view and edit code.

It is not. FUTO calls it “source first” which just means “open source but with rules against bad actors”. Certainly far from proprietary.
