You should edit out the racism from your title.
#NotesForDownvoters I had the word "rices" instead of "setups" in the title before so stop downvoting these replies
Once I heard there's something racist about the word "rice" but I really don't know what it is and people seem to understand what the word means here so yea. But if it's really bad, I can change that. I didn't mean anything racist
If you want to know you can start with this wikipedia article and then find lots of other discussion of it around the web.
please do.
There's a pinned post at the top of this very comm talking about exactly this issue: https://hexbear.net/post/403920?scrollToComments=false
Long story short, yes, it's a racist term with a racist history and should not be used. Please change it
Only for you
That post was pinned here for a while; I guess federation with hexbear was probably broken at the time it got unpinned (six months ago).
I just pinned and unpinned it again so that now it is unpinned on hexbear too. (i think having the "no racist terms" rule in the sidebar here is adequate.)
