    Not the main point, but this is the first time I’ve seen “allowlisted”. Lol

    …are they trying to avoid saying whitelisted because of the word “white”?

      Just like “master” in git. WTH is wrong with it. I feed “master” as “the master of kung-fu” is much better then “main”.

        The best reasoning I saw for this change was for clarity for non native English speakers. If you’re learning the language “allowlist” is definitely more clear in meaning than “whitelist”
