Dear Homo,

Recently, someone told us you are now profitable. Keep fighting for your rights, and we'll be there, when it's over, to steal credit for any victory.

Sincerely,

Anycorp ^TM^

GNOME is not a corporation. And second, in case you haven't noticed, we're not exactly popular nowadays. GNOME is actually filled with LGBTQ people who are making and running this project.

In the times we're going through right now, this is not just a rainbow capitalism move, this is a statement of actual support. Especially the fact that they are keeping the trans colors in, despite the fact that right now trans people are getting fucked over left and right.

Also, LGBTQ is not just... homos. What?

Lol okay, I thought it was clear that my post was just japes and jabs. Sorry if it legitimately offended.

It's ok. Sorry if I sounded too aggressive.

I get your feeling but Gnome is not a corpo, it's an open source project
