The contributors are expected to follow code of conduct: https://github.com/ziglang/zig/blob/master/.github/CODE_OF_C...

At least these lines sounds reasonable:

Examples of behavior that contribute to creating a positive environment include:

- Using welcoming and inclusive language.

- Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences.

- Gracefully accepting constructive criticism.

- Helping another person accomplish their own goals.

- Showing empathy towards others.

- Showing appreciation for others' work.

- Validating someone else's experience, skills, insight, and use cases.

A pity the leadership doesn't appear to hold themselves to the same standard.

I didn't have anything but a passing interest in Zig before, but this is a huge red flag about the project.



The deleting of half the comments is what's really irritating IMO. Go ahead and lock the thread, ban people if you don't want bounty discussion, but leave the history intact.


Agreed
