    I get you. It’s important to remember there is nuance on topics/people you agree and disagree with, rather than jumping to “is against transgenderism”, or “agrees with Republicans on everything”.

    Like you say, actions will speak louder than words. The further the Proton team can put their product and governance away from these opinions the better. The transition to non-profit structure is a positive step in that regard.

    edit: forgot an important word in my comment

      if actions speak louder than words, then what does it say about your pink washing attempt?

        Can you elaborate on what you mean by my pinkwashing attempt?

        note: I clarified my previous comment that was missing a word.

          this one:

          … If you look at this Lemmy development co-leader’s opinions on transgenderism, are you going to stop using this software that lets you converse on an LGBTQ+ safe-space instance with no involvement on a social level from said developer/founder?

            Is the pinkwashing part when I use this opinion as an example of questioning transgenderism? I don’t personally have a problem with the opinion highlighted, but again I do not speak for everyone, and I understand not everyone would agree. The point of using this example is not about the opinion itself but what that disagreement should extend to.
