Anyone that uses “woke” unironically is not someone I will ever take seriously. Criticizing someone for having awareness of reality is peak modern day anti-intellectualism.

… is this actually worth posting? They only thing they’ve done is give it a generic “R” logo

Seems like OP just wants to give these bigoted shitstains more of a platform
FarceOfWill@infosec.pub 4 weeks ago
I’m torn, because this is useless, but also I’d quite like them up high on a platform for everyone to point and laugh at.

I see this as political discourse. I can now look at whoever started and starred the fork and unquestionably categorize them as people not worth interacting with.

What recent events? People being weidly offended by “woke-ot” and the unnoficial community mod who apologized for being shitty years ago, or is there something new I missed?
The linked Github doesn’t have any information on why it was forked. The readme hasn’t been updated at all to say anything about why this should be used over normal godot.

Just the gamer chud brigade’s daily controversy

As far as I can tell, it’s what you suggested. I don’t really care about a fork because of a rogue community manager. Their foundation apologized, and I suspect they’ll try to do better.
A single instance does not a pattern make.

recent events within the godot project
What recent events? Why don’t you tell us what these recent events are? Would you, perhaps, care to expand on what these recent events might be? Because it seems like if you’re crying about that, then maybe you’re not a nice person.

Out of the loop, what events?

This whole mess has flooded my youtube feed with people self reporting. If they want an anti-woke version of Godot just so when they publish their bigoted games we can SEE that they are bigoted games, that’s perfectly fine by me. The trash that takes itself out is best.

Godot is WOKE and queerdo indie devs are using it to make WOKE games because they are UNCREATIVE HACKS who can’t into game engine thats why WE FORKED GODOT AND CHANGED ONE LETTER
IrritableOcelot@beehaw.org 4 weeks ago
Technically changed two letters. Thats what makes them innovator auteur geniuses.
uninvitedguest@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
Two letters. 100% more effective than 1 letter.

I think it’s petty to not play a game just because of the engine it’s written in…
I think I may have to make an exception to that rule for this. :P

I guess stealing the hard work of “the woke” is based af or something
RiikkaTheIcePrincess@pawb.social 4 weeks ago
How is using a game engine “woke?” I feel like I’m missing something about either gamedev history or yet another new meaning of “woke” 🤔
Telorand@reddthat.com 4 weeks ago
No, um you see…uh…shit…
luciole@beehaw.org 4 weeks ago
That just sounds like any normal day on Twitter. I feel bad for the community managers that still have to put up with that dumpster fire of a platform. This little flame war does nothing to my impression of Godot engine. To be honest I’ve been more worried about reports of rampant bullying.
Blisterexe@lemmy.zip 4 weeks ago
Lmao not even the banner in the github has changed
Blxter@lemmy.zip 4 weeks ago
They have said there first release is this Friday. So I would expect it all to be updated then
Telorand@reddthat.com 4 weeks ago
Inb4 it’s the same logo but red, and with the same description but with the added line, “Now anti-woke.”
At least it will be easy to tell which devs support human rights and which ones are pieces of shit.
Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org 4 weeks ago
I’m really confused by the word “woke” now.
It feels like it’s become a catch-all for anything that isn’t right wing? It’s like a not so subtle dog whistle.
brsrklf@jlai.lu 4 weeks ago
Has it ever been something else? Nobody using “woke” seriously has been able to define it.
Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org 4 weeks ago
I felt like I did hear some people use it in a more “legitimate” or “good faith” way around the time it first was becoming a more commonly used word.
But then it seemed it quickly just became…this lol. Aside from those couple occurrences years ago, I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone use it IRL.

A few minutes ago I posted a video about every game being woke now (spoiler: its funny): youtu.be/mZH8Fh29Wxc (and for discussion the topic beehaw.org/post/16369830)
CaptainBasculin@lemmy.ml 4 weeks ago
Unlike other game engines, godot’s open source nature allows this, but not sure if they will put in some actual innovation on top of the engine instead of lmaoforking.
masterspace@lemmy.ca 4 weeks ago
What the honest fuck are you talking about?
thingsiplay@beehaw.org 4 weeks ago
Salty developers who got blocked on Twitter, lol. First, who cares what opinion some person has on Twitter. It doesn’t affect or is related to Godot. Without context or being involved, i have to assume the community manager had reason to block those people who got annoying. You guys make problems out of nothing. Also how serious can we take it, if this is documented on knowyourmeme and are events happened on Twitter? About Wokeness of games?
The fork of Godot won’t change anything of this subject. It only supports toxicity towards the developers and splits the community for no reason. Your fork won’t solve the problem that you got blocked in Twitter.

If you wish to discuss the controversy, feel free to make a post or link to an article. I’m personally not interested in hosting a link to these weirdos.

I think it’s great to see forks of Godot start happening, so we can see what out-of-the-box additions the community can think of.
But I will be floored if this repo gets a single feature of substance submitted to it.

Is this just an anti-woke fork? That’s kinda sad
