Come on guys, 2026 and you still using "blacklist". Why not BlockList?

Because changing blacklist to blocklist, master to main, etc. is a meaningless act of virtue signalling.

I'd argue it's not meaningless because the point wasn't to show inclusion but power. Nobody went for master's degrees, "master" as a rank in video games, or anything else.

Reminds me of [1]twitch.tv trying to remove "blind playthrough" as a tag to encourage inclusive language.
