This thread makes me so sad:

The goal of open source should be to empower people, not to make them feel like they have no agency and their work doesn't matter.

@shauna Did I read that correctly and Mozilla introduced a bot that turned all the translators into reverse-centaurs?

@shauna

Pretty poor.

Also #machinetranslation without enough consulation.

For those who came in late, the thread has the details of its introduction for other languages as shown here:

@shauna The response from the Mozilla staffer is appalling. "Let me waste more of your time 'hopping on a call' where I can try to convince you to keep doing what you do for us for free, while acting as though I need information from you about what the problems are when you've already set them out in six bullet points of sparkling clarity that I couldn't be bothered to read or address."
