From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hyprland needs a real fork and rebrand so that it's not run by fascists.

Edit: because people want sources. Vaxry is:

Looks like Vaxry simply refuses to ban people based on what they say/believe. How does that make him a fascist? Throwing labels like that around doesn’t help anyone, because when an actual fascist shows up and you label him as such, nobody will care.

If your bar is where all the Nazis go to hang out, I'm afraid you have a Nazi bar.

Maybe, but that doesn’t make the owner a nazi, does it? If black people like to hang out at a bar owned by a white/hispanic/asian person, does the owner magically become black?

[–] ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The owner and proprietor of what is now a Nazi bar can't decouple themselves from what it is they are operating. Which is the local Nazi bar.

Sure. Just to check, are saying Vaxry is a fascist?

Not Op here, from what I've read is that the answer to that question is unknown but he showed a significant tolerance for some. Does that make it himself fine? In my book: yes.

For me personally it was enoughto leave the project behind as it's so closely tied to the person.

That's a call everyone needs to do for themselves though if course

Not op, I don't have the links but there are many very questionable blogposts made by hyprland's main dev about politics and especially trans people. As a trans person it made me leave hyprland for good and switch to sway.

Same song everytime and no new examples. I guess people can never change.

Last I checked the discord still has these types of people, so it's still valid.
