Look at these sponsors! I wouldn’t use Ladybird in 1750 BC.

      FUTO is seemingly lead by an entirely unrelated toxic individual. But as for 37signals:

      The open source web application framework Ruby on Rails was initially created by David Heinemeier Hansson for internal use at 37signals, before being publicly released in 2004.

        for further context on DHH, CEO and founder of 37signals: he also made omarchy, the infamous dodgy-personal-arch-config-turned-linux-distro, is in large part the reason why framework is in so much hot water right now, and the reason he’s bad (and why we’re mad at framework for collaborating with him) is he’s an open white supremacist

          framework is in so much hot water right now

          Most people don’t care.
          And honestly, I understand Framework’s position. They collaborate with about a dozen other distros.

            Except we do care, and we Framework is going to see this as we stop buying their products going forward.

        Goddammit, now I have to find another keyboard for my phone. Any recommendations for one that isn’t supported by fascists?

          You’re getting astro turfed to hate a company that is actively fighting tech monopolies. Please take a minute to reflect on why this happens.

            You’re astroturfing to allow right wing influencers to be legitimatized socially. Please take a minute to reflect on why you are enabling Nazis.

                and here we are, longing for your sage wisdom and approval…

                Anyone who openly hosts or works with yarvin doesn’t get my trust, business, or attention. None of the already established and successful projects futo claims to have given ‘grants’ to need futo’s help, and I don’t need futo.

        Can we stop giving a shit about stuff like this? Open source is arguably more important than a single peraon’s political beliefs…

          as a trans woman i’d rather not promote and fund (indirectly, but still) the people who want people like me dead

          i’d rather their white supremacy, misogyny and queerphobia not become the norm in open-source spaces, more than it already is…

          WTF!? “Can we just get over allowing and promoting Nazis into this bar? What’s important is that the beer is free”

          What a disgusting sentiment to see upvoted on Lemmy.
