    They passed a bunch on to Hyprland. Fuck all these transphobes and other bigoted right-wing assholes.

    Actually, no. Fuck someone nice. Or don’t; I’m not your mother.

      There will be a day when I finally learn to code properly and fork the fuck out of X. I’ll name it antifaX .

      Or not, because it sounds… what’s the opposite of sex positive? 🥵

          I’d be all over that if I had anything to contribute with, but at the moment, I’m still learning the very basics of C and I’m in the middle of some other projects… 😅 Don’t let my preoccupation kill your enthusiasm though!!! 🙏💞

          Anecdote time
          I recently inherited a Commodore 64 from my dad. It’s from the 80’s. While all I could do with it was

          • type text and see it displayed
          • load some games from cassette tapes

          It was extremely refreshing to see that literally nothing was going on in the system other that what I saw on the screen.

            Eh, it’s probably not a realistically managable project. I might actually have more luck forking the NetBSD kernel to use compat_linux by default, which would achieve decent compatibility with the Linux ABI.

            re: Anecdote Time
            That’s so cool! Yeah, it’s pretty neat seeing or using a really simple system like that. Smaller or older computers tend to be a lot easier to understand, too, in my opinion.

      It is always easy to judge, especially when using a software that was mainly developed by tankies. Can’t always win.

        “Judge”? My brother in free/libre software, they’re the ones who want me to not exist. I do not wish an ill fate upon them; however, I cannot tolerate intolerance.

        Also, if they were vocally hateful against any other marginalised community, it would be totally unacceptable to the vast majority of Linux users.

          Oh, there is no question about how evil Hyprland devs are. Don’t forget that tankies are pro-Russia and pro-Russia is anti-trans. Same shit, different boat.

            It’s almost like you have to judge software based on its utility rather than the political wisdom of the developer.

            I don’t even understand these “tankies” as they’re called. I thought they were Communists, but if they support a Capitalist country (Russia), then they’re not very Communist, are they?

              Communists that support Russia have critical support, which means we support some of what they do, such as supporting Cuba during a genocidal blockade, but we still have valid criticisms. You won’t see any of us claim Russia is morally good or some nonsense.

              Communists don’t judge countries based on their perceived moral character. Russia, like all countries, acts in the interest of its own ruling class. Right now the interest of their ruling class is aligned with anti-imperialist forces. We understand that imperialism is the primary contradiction, and that as long as we live under a unipolar world order the global majority will only get poorer and more exploited, that climate change will inevitably kill most of us and that those who survive will be tied to the same exploitative forces.

              The only reason why some of us come across as “pro-Russia” is because we’re often debunking imperialist propaganda. As long as people are willing to read beyond wikipedia or a genocide-denying newspaper, we’re fine discussing events with a lot more nuance than we get credit for. But it’s a lot easier to pretend we’re crazy Putin-loving tankies, so that’s what you see here.
