I read the links provided in the other thread. This seems to be a bit of an overreaction.
Overreaction is the only tool that works to stop enshittification before it starts.
Lean on Framework. Insist they vet projects before giving them money. There’s nothing here that can’t be undone.
Let me sum up the reasons.
DHH wrote a blog post on his experience with immigration in the UK. Some people think that makes him a Nazi. He also runs the omarchy distribution.
There was a transphobic post on hyprland‘s Discord, which was unmoderated at the time.
That blog post is quite racist, or at the very least, xenophobic.
It’s not one comment from hyperland, it’s an harasement campain that led them to be baned from freedesktop.org and rightfully so.
And the blog post you liked is a rant that there not enough white people in london while supporting the tommy robinson march ( a nazi event ).
Funny how there’s already people downplaying how bad it actually is.
