How is simplex going to turn a profit for the people who’ve currently invested in it? This is why things get enshittified, they have vulture capitalists helping them start out and no one thinks about it till one day it comes time to pay the piper and features start getting broken, ads get shoveled in, and unless enough money is generated the app will eventually fail.
I hope simplex finds a way to go non profit, until then I can’t trust their business model to not shift in the future.
At some point you need to take responsibility for your insecurities and work on moving past them rather then expecting society to placate you. Languages evolve, so if your end goal is gender equality (or even if its not), the best thing you can do is accept that words are context sensative and “dude” and “guys” can be neutral terms.
