What is the reasoning behind the fork?
Godot expressed support for LGBTQ+, so the alt-right had to fork their own.
Way to disengenously misrepresent what happened, which in of itself is truly a staple of certain kind of online activism. Bra-vo!

That's a disingenuous take. Godot is blocking devs on github, preventing them from getting updates for their projects, because of ideological disagreement.
What does it mean to “block” developers from accessing an open source repo? I can go to https://github.com/godotengine/godot and clone it without even making an account.
A total tempest in a teapot.

Only reports I’ve seen mention being blocked in twitter. If that’s a thing you care about that deeply you probably should be blocked.

If someone's knowledge of software licenses and distributed version control is so limited that they can't figure out a way to bypass this "block," then I'm not sure they're cut out for the rigors of video game development.

That's beside the point.

You said that "Godot is blocking devs on github, preventing them from getting updates for their projects."
In fact, no devs are blocked from getting updates for their projects.
