Hi everyone, Please do not reply to this thread. It is clear this was a misunderstanding
due to differing cultural contexts and further on-list discussion is not going to be
productive. I think Swastika's gracious response is all that really needs to be said,
in any case.~mSent from my Galaxy

Leslie,Thank you for coming up and talking about this, I really really appreciate it.
I'm really sorry about what you and your family had to go through, and I genuinely
appreciate your point. Well my name is not at all related to that swastika, but means
auspiciousness in sanskrit, my parents are Indian it was their choice, trust me if I it
was me to name myself I would have never chosen 'Swastika'. I was teased by my
classmates a lot of times when this we studied this chapter.I totally understand how it
feels to see such a name. I guess that's why people are not naming their children
swastika anymore, it's rarely found. I will definitely make sure this is not
repeated.RegardsSwastikaOn Fri, Feb 26, 2021, 2:52 AM Leslie S Satenstein

Hi Swastika,
I'm having a hard time reading the text bc of the size of the
image but it looks like you used a character in your using name
that isn't allowed, maybe an "@" sign? Can you try creating a
username that is only letters and numbers?

Hi Swastika!
Welcome to the team - we are quite happy to have
you here!
One thing I'd like to point out is that we have
fortnightly video chat meetups - our next one is
scheduled for March 3rd - so keep an eye out for
that and we'd love to meet you! (Details on the call
are here:
https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/join-us-design-team-sessions-live/
)
It seems that your core interest is in user research
and interface design. Would you like to help me
review the design in this ticket? Maybe we could
meet up and go through it?

Cheers,
