Today was the first time I was allowed to vote in the general election. I'm a bit emotional to be honest.

If you view changing documentation to use generic “they” instead of “he” text as too political to be acceptable, then I’m sorry but your project is deeply unserious. “The generic user is a man” is a deeply political statement, and hiding behind “we’re apolitical” is bullshit. https://hachyderm.io/@Mara/112718515777208791
