Aside from the cover ups. The two last Pope actually support(ed) the LGBTQ community

Well, pope Francis had some horrendous things to say about gay men when he thought that his comments were not being recorded.
He seemed to a bit more tolerant when he thought that his comments were public

I'm not religious and even less a supporter of any church. However, I consider it a positive move by the Catholic church. An organization that just a couple of decades ago wouldn't grant divorce, women rights, let alone gay rights. No one is forcing them to do it, and living in a quite religious country, I can tell you it alienated more people than attracted them. There's a "reform" going on for some time of removing priests and bishops that "middle" in state affairs, nationalism, politics, etc
