DHH is gonna make me donate to Gnome. Best arc so far.
Can someone explain to me the whole drama with @frameworkcomputer, Omarchy, #DHH, Hyprland? From what I read, FW supported the development of #Hyprland, #GNOME, #KDE and #Omarchy and provided expertise to make them more compatible with their hardware. I do not get, why this is wrong or harmful towards Linux community.
I have no idea who DHH even is, what are their political views or alignments, nor did I notice any harmful messaging in Omarchy itself. Am I missing something?

Thoughts On Omarchy: Slick Distro, Complicated Ethics / Tedium
「 But Omarchy is a reminder that we live in a world where software isn’t just software, but the people who make it. And dhh, despite his rep as a dev’s dev, comes with a hell of a lot of baggage. Recently, the Ruby on Rails community has been through some things, and dhh himself has proven a lightning rod on multiple occasions, most recently for a post many saw as xenophobic 」

Reading the Framework discourse thread, all I can do is vehemently oppose sharing and promoting a bunch of dotfiles cosplaying as a distro, leadership is going with the "I don't see colors" coward argument.
Lol, #framework decided to sponsor Hyprland as well?
Did they swallow the entire #DHH pill?
Beyond disappointing.

If you're using Basecamp, or his Linux distribution, of which I forgotten the name of [*], you might want to reconsider.
[*] EDIT — I remembered, it's Omarchy.

The problem isn’t that DHH finally said the quiet part out loud.
The problem is that you’re still pretending it’s shocking, still refusing to connect the dots, and still showing the world that whiteness matters more to you than justice.

David Heinemeier Hansson’s disgusting and hateful language has continually alienated Ruby developers and hopeful newcomers. His technical contributions and creating Rails don’t give him a free pass to spread harmful rhetoric. It’s time for community leadership that matches Ruby’s inclusive values.
So it was a self-coup backed by a billionaire fascist after all.
