Is this centrism or is it just a bad faith argument from a bigot?

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 week ago (7 children)

The person making the argument could just be naive too.

I could see myself 25 years ago making such a statement in completely good faith, trying to see both sides and all that. But I was naive to think that both sides were also arguing in good faith.

But to be fair, that naive messenger would still be repeating an argument that originated in bad faith.

Godot discord in a nutshell

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (2 children)

So is anyone rational actually leaving Godot? I saw that Redot, last I checked they were 52 commits behind, and their only 4 commits were changing any references of "Godot" in the code to "Redot"

I'm OOTL, why are people leaving Godot?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

The community manager posted something about Godot being woke on Twitter in response to someone saying using a game engine is "woke", and a bunch of repliers were banned, some bans were reasonable, some bans weren't. The official response from Godot was pretty lackluster too.

Posting anything progressive on Twitter is just stirring the pot at this point, and it's a little funny, since the majority of game devs I've met have been incredibly leftist, a lot of the folks getting pissy weren't game devs, but just capital G Gamers

Personally I don't think it's wise to abandon Godot for a fork that will always lag behind and also just seems like a crude protest in retaliation. I think using Godot is fine as it is and unfortunately a con to the engine is we have to deal with silly politics from them being unfortunately in control of the Godot loudspeaker. I had to leave their discord because of the circlejerk they have going on was unbearable.

I wish we could just have a professional space.
