      It does seem less though.

      Like for instance I recently posted a project im working on. Electronic and program project board. (Raspberry pi project).

      And I really am a novice, trying to figure things out.

      AND. I posted a video explaining the project with drawings and such. So it was obvious I’m a woman.

      And guess what? I actually got a few upvotes and a few helpful comments.

      No one called me a dumb bitch. No one told me to fuck off.

      My post didn’t get downvoted into oblivion because I’m a newb. Or God forbid, a woman doing computer things. Which is forbidden because misogyny.

      It was quite refreshing and unexpected.
