Open source is increasingly a kink friendly space where people are encouraged to let their freak flag fly. See also, e.g., cargo-mommy: https://github.com/Gankra/cargo-mommy

Phaser has been consistent with their update title[1] for a decade now. Beats the mind numbingly sterile update of chrome and firefox I suppose.

I call bs -- that is weasel words. regarding the "truth" that statement, once someone said to me that tech content is like the surface of a balloon being blown up.. each area on the surface gets larger for sure, but also more distant to the others.

kink content is, was, and always will be a "bug light" attractor to certain people.. that is not at all the same as whatever this one-liner says

I'm not sure cargo-mommy strikes me as a strong example. It appears to be specific to the kink, not some mainstream tool that ties in kink somehow.
There is a difference between being kink friendly and exposing your kink to the public, including minors. There is a time and place for everything, and involving potentially unconsenting people in your kink by "letting your freak flag fly" is wrong and has nothing to do with being kink friendly.
It's heartwrenching to see kids these days downloading X-rated Rust crates at such a young age
