Let's do this.

Oh, since I got a comment regarding my Framework stuff being "political", lemme give you a glimpse into my world:

1) I used to daily and like hyprland as a compositor. Unfortunately, if I ever wanna contribute, I'll have to expect to be harassed and discriminated against.

2) The idea behind xlibre, being "how bout we clean up the x11 codebase a bit, fix some stuff and add a couple features" is in general something I can get behind, but I will have to expect dealing with transphobic bs if I ever wanna contribute. The best chances I'd have is by hiding my identity as best I can.

3) I don't know what Omarchy's deal is. I won't find out, because if I like it, guess what: I am basically excluded from contributing.

4) If I inevitably get harassed, I will get accused of "not being tolerant of other political opinions" when I go public with it, since apparently vile BS like that is somehow equatable with disagreeing about taxes n stuff.

5) Oh yeah, this is by far not limited to FOSS contributing. Last time I went back to my home town for a doctors receipt, I got called a f*g and the guy wanted to physically fight me.

But sure, "please don't tolerate people wanting to see me dead or worse" is somehow political. Me just existing must be a strong political statement then. And I'm not even a politician.

I paid a fuckton of money for my @frameworkcomputer laptop parts. I paid extra for the parts I could've saved money on elsewhere because I wanted to support the company and what they stand for. I even ported Debian to the RISC-V Motherboard for the product that made Framework Framework: The Framework 13.

Now Framework decided to sponsor Omarchy and Hyprland, the leaderships of which are not just "politically of a different opinion", they are actively toxic, hostile and highly discriminatory, to phrase it euphemistically.

Nirav Patel responded to this in the community forum, essentially doubling down on the decision to take a "big tent approach".

I want to reiterate: __This isn't about "political differences", because the political difference are actively harmful to democracy itself, and the physical safety of marginalised communities.

Someone I supported in good faith with both code and money turned around and gave this money to multiple people who'd rather see me dead for existing.

Needless to say, I feel quite betrayed and I'm really torn on wether or not I should even continue and proceed with the port for the second RISC-V mainboard, because I don't want to end up supporting the hate towards me, my wife or other people in the same situation as me.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels betrayed by this decision.

Delusions of a Protocol.

Azhdarchid: So, if you're online poisoned like me, you may have noticed that Bluesky CEO Jay Graber has been having sort of a slow motion, low-key public meltdown for the past several weeks...
