It’s a bad time to learn that hyprland community is toxic. I’ve used it for a long while now pretty comfortably.
Seeing Framework give money to DHH is like watching someone step on a rake and defending it.
I’m tired of idiots who defend anything as long as they like it, and only care about morality when they’re offended.
I saw the same thing happen with popular new game Mewgenics where creator of Binding of Isaac, Edmund, defended including Chris Chan, who couldn’t be found guilty of SA’ing their demented mother on account of their autism.
It’s not only decision but the defense that makes these things look bad. They need to give money to fascists. They need to include controversial people. The people who defend it seem like they perceive criticism as personal attacks and retaliate in bad faith arguments.
At this point I’m venting. Lemmy is great because it tends to attract people who are less pressured to conform to their tribes, which is great for having authentic discussions.
I mean if just the community is toxic I just wouldn’t participate - if it’s some negative trait is that. I can use a tool and not contribute to that toxicity.
But for moral issues like supporting a project that I’m turn supports fascism, homophobia, etc. I will protest by simply not bring a user. I don’t make this part of my identity, I probably should though - I don’t check these things, I only find out.
It’s a bummer too because I was planning on getting a framework laptop. Wound up just getting another Lenovo business laptop secondhand lol.
