Hey! I've noticed that in this post you use "guys" as a reference to the entire community, which is not made up of only guys but a variety of community members.

I'm running an experiment and hope you'll participate. Would you consider changing "guys" to a more inclusive term? If you're open to that, please let me know when you've changed it and I'll delete this comment.

For more information and some alternate suggestions, see dev.to/seankilleen/a-quick-experim....

Thanks for considering!

Oh, sorry if I offended someone.

'Guys' for me is some general concept, but thank you for your article!

No worries! I don't think you need to be sorry. It's a common thing and I don't believe anyone would take strong offense, but sometimes changing it can make others feel that much more comfortable, which is nice.

Thanks for your consideration!
