@_elena Form letter. Same response sent to a Verge reader in their comments.

Turns out 1Password is a "big tent" company same as all the other alt-right donors. (They don't mention it but the same reasoning: we like who we like, we aren't changing our mind, your political views aren't our problem.)

@_elena What a waste of time all that typing was. I didn't even finish reading this pile. Fuck them.

"...already have a meaningful presence in that community..."

Yep. Understood.

@_elena @inthehands I got the same response verbatim.

@_elena tone deaf fascist enabling wankers.

@_elena Shorter 1Password: "Evil is not a dealbreaker for us and we're sorry to hear it is one for you."

@_elena @inthehands “We didn’t donate to DHH, we donated to the foundation DHH controls. It’s completely different!”

@_elena the fact that they have a canned response ready to go tells you that they're getting this feedback from a lot of people, but not actually listening to it.

@_elena Thanks for doing the right thing. I already added 1Password to the global list of boycotted brands and services.🙂

@_elena It is at minimum a form letter — I got the exact same reply. I've also left for greener pastures.

@_elena It should be clear enough by now that for-profit companies are fascism adjacent, if not full on collaborators. Especially in tech, the brain worms have burrowed deep in that industry. We need some nonprofit or cooperative cloud services that exist and run for the users and not just to inflate the ego of some empty suit.

@_elena did you know that you can host your own Bitwarden via @yunohost? Vaultwarden is the key! Using it over one year on my Raspi and it's great! :-)

@_elena That sounds like a pile of bullshit to me. If they had done 5 minutes of Googling, they would have known exactly how their support of Omacom would be perceived by large parts of the developer and open-source communities.

People don't usually tend to throw heaps of money at random foundations with no research about who they are and what they're in the news for. At this point, one has to assume that anyone who chooses to support Omarchy does it because of DHH's views, not despite them.

@_elena
Wow. Thanks so much for this Elena - I read it as ‘get f*cked’. Glad you - and others - are not with them anymore. Respect. 👍🙏🏻

@_elena god, they really think we're all so dumb.

@_elena Same reply I got. Fuck ‘em.
