Maybe I'm missing something, but these seem to be the build instructions. What part is gendered in there?
the screenshot is for another project from the same dev called "serenity os"
here's the thingy you're lookin for https://github.com/SerenityOS/serenity/pull/6814/commits/beb448fc248f1cbd82a4c68ddf72687203d4d51e
I see. The developer once using a generic "he" on a different project and being snarky about it would be pretty low on my reasons not to use Ladybird, but I had no intentions to use it anyway, so eh.
Next to 0 of the people brigading the PRs and Issues have any interest in using SerenityOS either.
Github really needs better protections against harassing behaviors.
Arguably, the fix should be to "it" since anon is a utility account, not a user.
That was what they did.
Kernel/Syscalls/jail.cppincludes the gender neutral "they" as well. Good on them for merging that PR.
