Nah, just annoyed that Microsoft, a massive corporation that has a tendency of fucking people over, is now fucking with me by changing the default.
Having git get the option to change the default from master to whatever you choose as a user is great! More options is more better. Having a massive corporation fuck with the defaults because (AFAIK) a single person made a complaint about it does not gel with me.
PS: How the fuck is main “scary woke”? Is this that “brainrot” I’ve heard about?
I dunno about NostraDavid, but I don’t object to main as a name. It’s an obviously better name (let’s be honest Git is terrible at naming). If it had been the name from the start it would have been fine.
The problems are a) changing the name was - and continues to be - a persistent minor pain, and b) it was changed for really really stupid reasons! Mainly the latter. It’s painful when people are being idiots even if it doesn’t directly affect you.
It’s kind of like my objection to religion (at least Christianity in the UK). It’s not really doing any harm, but it’s just so stupid. (I don’t blame Christians; I was raised one so I know first hand how it tricks you into belief.)

Yeeeeees! Somebody gets it! I’ll add to it that it’s also a massive corporation that’s been pushing it! A massive corporation that’s known for "Embrace, extend, and extinguish" (EEE), because that’s how they fucked over fair competition. I like parts of Microsoft, but I don’t trust one bit of them.
Scary woke branch name triggered you? Need to get back to your safe space?
