Congrats - looks good!
I’ve actually never signed up a LinkedIn account so can’t compare, but curious about the name - does it have a meaning?

Years. I started the project nearly 10 years ago. But it paused for multiple years because of cancer and divorce. I survived both but wasn’t in the mood for this project during that personal Odyssey. I picked up the project a couple of months ago again. Now it is better than ever. It really is fun to see people working with it.

Thanks for taking the time to explain your perspective. I understand where you’re coming from, even though I see it differently.
For vutuv, I’ve consciously decided to use the options male, female, and other. It’s a product decision, not a statement about how everyone should build their software.
The nice thing about open source is that nobody has to agree with every design choice. If someone believes a different approach is better, they are very welcome to fork the project and adapt it to their own vision. I’d genuinely be happy to see different ideas explored.
My goal with vutuv is to build the platform according to the product vision I have in mind. I don’t expect everyone to agree with every decision, and that’s perfectly fine.
Thanks again for the discussion.

Update: I changed the gender logic. Thanks for the feedback. I hope the new way combines the best of both worlds. Please have a look for yourself at https://vutuv.de
