    I had a similar behaviour years ago. I deleted the app from my phone, but then after a short while logged in via my phone's browser. A short while after that I chose to 'delete' my…

    Okay but what does one actually do to make the community more 'diverse and welcoming'? What is preventing a particular person from contributing to the project? Are contributions cu…
