> but if your problem is that the creator and the community have political opinions and don't like people with incompatible ones, then that's just society...

No, I am fine with incompatible views and I often seek them in order to grow. I do not enjoy echo chambers and I usually prefer and welcome disparate, including contrarian, opinions.

It's more like I don't want Ideology served with Programming Language, it feels like a distraction to me when I am in that mode. I usually consume Ideology under a different context, where I find it more productive and can contribute better to it.

I think you have a reasonable position here, so I understand where you come from.

I find this whole thread here interesting because until today I wasn't confronted by any of this, even though I joined the Discord and had a pleasant time (and will keep doing).

So I guess all I have to say on this is I don't think the "ideology" is that much served with the programming language. Yes I read that there's a code of conduct and that annoyed some people. But like I downloaded Gleam, I coded with it, I talked to people, and the thought police didn't knock on my door. So I guess what I mean is that it feels a little overblown.

Thanks for understanding it, and yes not everyone draws the line at the same boundaries.

Once in a while I try to push my boundaries, but then again I like to choose where I do this. For this one, I prefer not to do it in a work adjacent environment with strangers on the internet.

That aside, the language sounds fun hope you create cool things with it!

Their ideology is literally on the front page of https://gleam.run/

		On the front page or not, I think nchagnet's point is that, in practice, he doesn't bump into it much. Whether that's good enough for you or not is up to you.

		you mean this? > "As a community, we want to be friendly too. People from around the world, of all backgrounds, genders, and experience levels are welcome and respected equally. See our community code of conduct for more. Black lives matter. Trans rights are human rights. No nazi bullsh*t. "
