Inb4 normies force us to change well established terminology just to appease their fragile souls

Like git's main and master

Whining about that change is kinda a red flag ngl

Right? It’s less letters and it’s pretty clear.

I haven’t found a good action neutral replacement for “black list” yet though. “Deny list” and “block list” are too action-specific.

Sounds like a nono list to me!

Or enemy list, but that might be too presidential...

Maybe you jest but now I'm seriously wondering why hasn't this been proposed. It's defo better than something like "disallow list".
