      @ivo give your company’s “girls” kudos on being part of such a great, globally-beneficial app. I’m a Canadian forester in British Columbia that uses the app daily across multiple regions to plan my various transportation modes (boat, helicopter, float plane, etc.) at all elevations and altitudes.

      The graphical display is excellent for communicating plans and projections via imagery screenshots.

      Thanks to the whole team, regardless of gender! Ignore the social Justice warriors who always look to wave their flags in hopes of feeling validated on this amazing planet! 🤦🏻‍♂️😂🇨🇦

        @Ahmed-A-AS Hello, ideas from all our users are valuable, Windy community will always be a place where to share your suggestion and ideas. And at the same time, we do think that Premium users should also get Premium support, which is only fair. I fail to see the discrimination aspects in it. :)

          @winsett @auweatherwatcher Hi, yes, we are a team of 2 girls, so the expression in this article is used accurately. :)

              "Girls?" Do you have boys on your team? I love your site but not your attitude. I am not sure I want to give you my money. A girl

                @sefarfan Yes, our team consists of women and men. What is wrong with "girl" expression?

                  @triggernometry @auweatherwatcher @emilyyyZzz They are girls and we call them so. We use such naming in common language. We do not have anonymous helpdesk, but we have Kori and Petra ...and unlike Alexa or Siri, they are real ;-)

                      Just a note to our international Windy users (especially those from native english speaking countries) regarding the 'girls' wording in earlier posts:

                      Please bear in mind that Windy was founded and is based in Prague, Czech Republic, and the Founder and most of the Team (and many of the Moderators as well) speak english as a second language, just like many of the Windy users here too.

                      Therefore sometimes the small nuances of words and language used may not always carry the same weight or depth of meaning (either positive or negative) as they might do in other languages, cultures, or countries.

                      As was mentioned, at this time the main support is indeed provided by two female Team members, @Korina and @petra-pik

                      Thank you for your understanding and your support of Windy and the Windy Team :)

                      WINDY is everywhere :)

                        Thank you for removing the banner!

                        Those losing their minds about the use of “girls” need to chill out. Windy is from Europe, where they still use common sense in regards to language - unlike here in North America, where many read into and sensationalize the smallest nuances of words to make a statement. There is no infringement on equality or rights to see here... move on.

                              @Ahmed-A-AS sadly Ahmed, there is no indication of discrimination on this page. It is only in your own mind.

                                  @timoteii You won't be so grateful after learning that they are planning to add ads to the service destroying the most useful merit of the app.

                                        @Korina sorry, not good enough. It should disappear immediately the first time it has been seen/clicked on. It’s big, ugly and an eyesore each time I open the app that I have paid good money for.
                                        Are you actually instead just testing out the banner for when you introduce advertising for free users in 2021 - don’t test it on me.
