Is it? Is it reaaaaaally?
At risk of sounding like a bootlicker, I have to at least give credit to Steam for making an explicit exemption for trans people changing their account login names from our deadnames. Typically there's no way to change your login name, and it seems like there's probably some fucked up old spaghetti code to blame. But steam support lets you change it specifically if it is your deadname, and it seems like they go out of their way to accommodate us to do that. From what it sounds like when I talked to steam support, as a software developer my self, it sounds like a convoluted manual process that they go through solely to make trans people's lives a little better. They even ask us specifically not to widely share that they are willing to do this, presumably so cis people don't take advantage of it and ruin it for the rest of us. So good for them, honestly.
That's pretty cool
The person who implemented this policy:
Yeah, given their actions during the George Floyd protests this is par for the course. For those not aware, some of the employees wanted the company to make a statement and donate money to appropriate charities. Others were tech-chud libertarians who of course wanted to do nothing or outright condemn the movement. The solution the higher-ups came to was to just give every employee several thousand dollars to do with as they saw fit. Want to donate to bail funds? That's just fine! Don't want to donate at all? That's okay too! Would rather just give it to atomwaffen? Go right ahead, just don't make us pick a side!
