I think this may be the issue to which you are referring:

https://hyperborea.org/reviews/software/ladybird-inclusivity/

While this is troubling to read about, this narrative’s lack of evidence or references keep me from accepting it at face value. Old mastodon chatter (and perhaps deleted posts or scuttled instances) may be difficult to retrieve, but GitHub discussions shouldn’t be hard to find.

So I’m withholding judgement for the moment.

UPDATE: Commenter lime!@feddit.nu wrote this terrific comment that provides confirmation of the above narrative, corrective action that the LadyBird engineering team has taken taken, plus some vitally important context of the entire kerfuffle. A+ work.

You don't consider it rather exclusionary to imply that only men use computers?
