Comment on Framework under fire for Omarchy/DHH/Hyprland support?

RushLana@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

Pretty good post about the situation. I would just add a few thing :

The harasement from the hyperland project got so bad they are banned from FreeDesktop.org and I’ve seen how many talented people gave up on working on the Linux ecosystem because of that.

Right to repair does not match well with right wing politics (TL;DR AuthRight need control and in lib-right absolute capitalism having reparable stuff is a surefire to kill your company ) but it’s a murky and difficult subject so I understand why it’s not mentioned.

Also of note, framework didn’t advertise thoose project on fedi/mastodon so this seems like they had known from the start a backlash would occur.

Just to clarify, you mean the harassment alienated contributions, not the freedesktop ban, right?

  I’m not sure I understand your question but to clarify :
  
  Hyperland team and comunity members harassed FDO members and got banned from the freedesktop comunity.

While I agree, especially around farming, right to repair is a massive topic and advocated for strongly. It’s weird that they’d then advocate against it with their other views, but logic hasn’t existed in politics for longer than I’ve been alive, so yeah.
