On a code comment the author wrote “he” somewhere, not sure if referring to a specific person or was used to generally refer to “people”. It could be the author was referring to a trans woman or could be a cis man (haven’t checked).
Somebody did a PR changing that to “they” and the author rejected it and said something along the lines of “not wanting to get political”.
Then backlash started.
Not enough meat here for me to boycott the app really. YMMV
So most likely a mental translation issue. Massive nothingburguer specially with the dire need on options on the browser space
