    If you wish to discuss the controversy, feel free to make a post or link to an article. I’m personally not interested in hosting a link to these weirdos.

    I think it’s great to see forks of Godot start happening, so we can see what out-of-the-box additions the community can think of.

    But I will be floored if this repo gets a single feature of substance submitted to it.

    This whole mess has flooded my youtube feed with people self reporting. If they want an anti-woke version of Godot just so when they publish their bigoted games we can SEE that they are bigoted games, that’s perfectly fine by me. The trash that takes itself out is best.

    I’m really confused by the word “woke” now.

    It feels like it’s become a catch-all for anything that isn’t right wing? It’s like a not so subtle dog whistle.

      Has it ever been something else? Nobody using “woke” seriously has ever been able to define it.

        I felt like I did hear some people use it in a more “legitimate” or “good faith” way around the time it first was becoming a more commonly used word.

        But then it seemed it quickly just became…this lol. Aside from those couple occurrences years ago, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone use it IRL.

    recent events within the godot project

    What recent events? Why don’t you tell us what these recent events are? Would you, perhaps, care to expand on what these recent events might be? Because it seems like if you’re crying about that, then maybe you’re not a nice person.

        Inb4 it’s the same logo but red, and with the same description but with the added line, “Now anti-woke.”

        At least it will be easy to tell which devs support human rights and which ones are pieces of shit.

    That just sounds like any normal day on Twitter. I feel bad for the community managers that still have to put up with that dumpster fire of a platform. This little flame war does nothing to my impression of Godot engine. To be honest I’ve been more worried about reports of rampant bullying.

    What recent events? People being weidly offended by “woke-ot” and the unnoficial community mod who apologized for being shitty years ago, or is there something new I missed?

    The linked Github doesn’t have any information on why it was forked. The readme hasn’t been updated at all to say anything about why this should be used over normal godot.

      As far as I can tell, it’s what you suggested. I don’t really care about a fork because of a rogue community manager. Their Foundation apologized, and I suspect they’ll try to do better.

      A single instance does not a pattern make.

    … do you actually believe this worth posting? They only thing they’ve done is give the organization a generic “R” logo, there’s literally zero changes between the “fork” and godot

        I’m torn, because this is useless, but also I’d quite like them up high on a platform for everyone to point and laugh at.

      I see this as political discourse. I can now look at whoever started and starred the fork and unquestionably categorize them as people not worth interacting with.

    I think it’s petty to not play a game just because of the engine it’s written in…

    I think I may have to make an exception to that rule for this. :P

    (Trans rights are human rights, btw)

    Edit: … Wait, hang on. Isn’t the notion of using a game engine at all “woke” in itself? Like, isn’t that the entire thing that started this whole thing?

      How is using a game engine “woke?” I feel like I’m missing something about either gamedev history or yet another new meaning of “woke” 🤔

      Edit: NEVERMIND I missed a bit in the wall of text 😅 Sorries. I’ll just, uh… hide over here now 😶‍🌫️
