DHH has now gone even more full “send ‘em back where they came from” along with “stop trying to fix climate change” and “AI hypercapitalism yay”
I cannot express enough, FUCK THIS WHITE NATIONALIST ARSEHOLE, and anyone not wanting to cut the #Ruby and #Rails communities ties with him should be *fucking ashamed of themselves*.
@Floppy what an absolute 😤
I am ashamed of the fact that I’m stuck on #Rails because of the sunk costs of what I’ve already built, as are *so many* other project like Mastodon.
We cannot “just move”, the cost is enormous.
The Rails core team seem utterly compromised and under his spell. Nobody will speak out.
We need a hard #RailsFork. Now. And we need to coordinate to do it together and build a team.
I’m in. Who else?
@Floppy forking rails would be a hell of a statement. it would be a lot of work, but worth it, i think.
but we shouldn't think it will completely solve the problem, because, practically speaking, who is pulling the strings at Ruby Central these days?
OpenRails? Or would Rails be dropped altogether and a new name selected?
@simonzerafa it would have to be different, he owns the trademark
@Floppy not a Ruby dev here, but boosting in the hope that it can help
@Floppy Can't wait for Matz to once again proclaim that DHH did nothing wrong. /s
