“…Previous study identified that open source contributors might have different communication styles; some may have negative impacts. For example, a Naive Bayes classifier identified that the leaders of the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) have different communication styles (F1-score = 0.96) [48]; some used more impolite, rude, aggressive, or offensive words. Offensive language (defined as "communication that contains gutter language, swearing, racist, or offensive content") can also be identified in other platforms such as GitHub, Gitter, Slack, and Stack Overflow, with more than 97% of accuracy using BERT [6].…”

“…Egelman et al [36] focus on pushback, defined as "the perception of unnecessary interpersonal conflict in code review while a reviewer is blocking a change request." Other studies focus on specific aspects related to conflicts such as unfair treatment [42], and profanity and insults [70,72] during code review. Empirical findings by German et al [42] indicate that the majority of contributors to OpenStack, a large industrial OSS ecosystem, have experience with unfair treatment during code review.…”

“…The "Shut the f**k up" Phenomenon: Characterizing Incivility in Open Source Code Review Discussions suffer from stress and burnout facing toxic interactions [53]. Furthermore, previous work has found that there are quantifiable differences in the communication patterns between leaders of the Linux kernel community, in which some people often use words such as thanks and sorry, while other people use rude and offensive words [57]. To help address the effects of negative communication, Tan and Zhou [65] identified 17 strategies as effective practices for communication when submitting a patch to LKML.…”

“…We collected code review emails from the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) in the period between January 2018 and March 2019. We chose to study the Linux community because they have a diverse and large number of contributors with different communication styles [57] as well as a large number of daily discussions [17]. Furthermore, we chose to analyze the aforementioned period because it was a period with several controversies and potential for incivility due to Linus Torvalds' temporary break from his maintainer role [59], as well as when the code of conduct was established in the Linux kernel community.…”
