Anyway it's best to avoid any kind of COC file in the repository, it just takes up space and doesn't serve anything. We may simply ignore this shitty concept completely. You may argue why we don't ignore e.g. [copyright](copyright.md) in the same way and just not use any [licenses](license.md)? The situation with copyright is different: it exists by default, without a license file the code is proprietary and our neighbors don't have the legal safety to execute basic freedoms, they may be bullied by the state -- for this we are forced to include a license file to get rid of copyright. With COC there simply isn't any such implicit issues to be solved (because COCs are simply inventing their own issues), so we just don't try to solve non-issues.
**As of 2024 every [mainstream](mainstream.md) project has a COC** -- if it's a collaborative, non-uderground project, you have to assume it is fascist software until proven otherwise. The only software without COC now are small, usually one man projects such as [suckless](suckless.md) and [LRS](lrs.md) programs.

**Should you avoid software with COC?** Well, yes if possible, though it's very difficult today, it is forced on you and more often than not there are no alternatives. A COCed software is not really legally non-free, you can really [fork](fork.md) such project and just delete the COC file, there is no problem in that; the issue is not the file itself but more what it signifies -- it indicates a very toxic community around the project and often also harmful properties of the projects which is most likely [tranny software](tranny_software.md) and therefore [bloat](bloat.md) using shit languages like [Rust](rust.md) etc. Even if you can legally take a copy of the software from the toxic community and "make it your own", strip it off their propaganda, you probably won't rewrite it from scratch. Even if you do something with the software you are legally allowed to do, the community may bully you online because well, they are just toxic. COC is just a sign of trouble to come and a smell of bad technology. Rather seek for something better.
