Edit: I forgot to add context: Emmanuele Bassi (@ebassi) (pejoratively called here ebussy) is one of GNOME developers, known for removing “unnecessary” features.

            Yeah but that person calls him ebussy which, to get back to the thread, may be gay slang or a trans insult

              Its a fucking typo for comedic effect🤦‍♂️

              You’re looking far too deep into a joke about GNOME developers removing features.

              It’s gay slang used by gay people and femboys.
              Also, nobody cares, you can stop virtue signaling now. When you single this hard even the LGBTQ+ are going to call you a clown.
              Grow a sense of humor, this is literally a meme community dude, you’re supposed to dunk on blatant propaganda, not some stupid satirical wordplay and some stupid story about being forced to become a gnome by a gnome dev.

        The point was that the name may be trans or gay jargon or nicknames for something uncool. I dont know anything about that but that would not be appropriate.

        But well its 4chan
