There&#x27;s already a very strong reaction the other way - every time a project with a CoC is posted here or anywhere else, it&#x27;s pointed out with plenty of people agreeing that it&#x27;s awful and a blight on society. The PHP community has people outright angry about its attempt at passing even an extremely watered-down CoC which essentially says &quot;as long as you don&#x27;t explicitly say &#x27;on behalf of the PHP project, we all hate your guts, &lt;insert slur here&gt;&#x27;, it&#x27;s fine&quot;. And yet every time a project without a CoC is posted, nobody says a word - that&#x27;s the default, that&#x27;s what&#x27;s expected.
