Personal politics, what age do they live in? Gender neutral has been the norm for quite some time. Females are welcome to exist, both as users and as developers.

As a non-native speaker, I really have a lot of problems using a plural word as singular. When I read it, I always have to read twice to check whether one or more people are meant. I rather read and use "she/he" even with the additional typing.

you don't understand the language and thus everyone should comply with you? i'd rather read correct english than what you find more understandable

You obviously understand English to a lesser degree than me. I nowhere wrote that I made demands to comply with me. Where on earth do you get that idea that offering a perspective is a demand?

then use "they", do you speak exclusively with yourself? your linguistic choices affect others, just like others' linguistic choices affect you (as you were noticing and complaining about)

then use “they”

After 30 years of education saying otherwise it is not so easy.

do you speak exclusively with yourself?

I don't speak English with others at all. I'm not in an English speaking country.

your linguistic choices affect others

Having a hard time grasping completely new concepts is not a choice.

Is "He" not correct grammatically speaking?

Let's be real here, I've seen every post about Lady Bird and every time someone comes in to make a huge nothing burger about this PR. Yall are just a gigantic mob out for blood for absolutely no reason.

Your concern should be whether or not the browser works, its not even finished ffs. If this were a released, absolutely 100% complete app, then sure! Go and be pessimistic about grammar. However I can garauntee you they have bigger obstacles to overcome.
