We wonder if it's the usual pride ones or if they have more esoteric or often forgotten ones too.

Edit: Oh, it's 'only' the progress flag, heh.

It's the pride and progress flags. The fact that this is baked into Gnome as of 48.2 means it's no longer restricted to just a month. That's exactly what the community needs.

That's a good start, yeah. Would be nice to see more explicit identities though. We don't really feel represented by the 'generic' ones.

They're not Apple. Give them a break.

I did, I agreed with you somewhat even, but I still feel that way. Negative feedback is not always bad, I don't expect it overnight, but it would be nice eventually.

I'm not sure what you mean.

[–] SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org 3 points 3 hours ago

When these kinds of things get made, it's usually some generic pride flag, or a few well known ones. It's usually not more explicit identities, especially not the esoteric or often forgotten ones.

Now this is what I'm talking about.

Right? I'm about to install them now that I'm vertical and caffeinated.
