Aside from this dickhead and his shitty worldview, the OS is nothing more than a curated experience with what could be some fucking awful and dangerous AI implementations. I don't understand how people with any modicum of tech literacy wouldn't pass on this fucking thing INSTANTLY. I have always had mixed views on networkchuck, but to see him pumping this fucking thing up was pretty much my tipping point to writing him off completely.

And regarding DHH... I don't know how you could listen to this guy talk, and not get the Euroid sociopath vibes. Plus his little harem of fanboys are presumably gonna be jumping in at this point. It's just fucking gross. I passed on this months ago, and I will continue to pass.

I will continue never using it

People use Brave even though Peter Thiel is one of its main investors. People use Brave even though it was created by Brendan Eich, a homophobe and Trump supporter

I have no idea what I just read (since I know next to nothing about programming and linux) but then I read this:

"Believe in redemption, not permanent condemnation. People can be wrong and still be welcome back when they step away from harm. This is not about outrage or scolding, but rather attempting repair and healing for FOSS and the world."

...

"Believe in the redemption of middle aged nazis who know exactly what theyre doing gois , OK?! OK! Happy-Go-Lucky!"

Congratulations, you've just managed to advertise the exact thing you oppose. I would likely have given zero attention or thought to Omarchy today if I hadn't seen this thread.

Also, I just read that "The Omarchy Doctrine" page; if someone seriously thinks that is a "fascist creed", then that is very interesting. About the person who thinks that. If someone could help me figure out what part of that is supposed to be outrageous or especially controversial, I'd appreciate any help!

Both the Omarchy shilling and these attempts at smearing a lot of people with the least charitable interpretation possible of their words and actions feel incredibly artificial, so I'm going to do what is best for me and ignore both.

I am all on board with letting people know when open source is a bit too aligned with major companies or is somehow compromised.

I have no intent or need to use Omarchy.

This sites list of YouTubers to shun however is a bit too "purity test" for me. The reasons listed are, let's say extremely tepid in many cases.

I've never heard Jeff Geerling talk about any issue other than homelab stuff like hardware pricing and availability. His religious and personal views were not apparent to me at all.

I watched the Louis Rossmann video mentioned with the CO State Rep, and Louis was respectful and platformed this individuals commentary on the subject of privacy issues for a long time in the video. Generally Rossmann seems to criticize the living hell out of politicians left, right, and center.

I guess all I am saying is... Use whatever products you do or don't want to for your own reasons but, I disagree with the concept that I should brigade specific creators because they support Open Source but not 100% of my particular basket of other issues. We need Open Source to grow and need to reach out to diverse groups who can find value in it.

I will continue to listen to both Craft Computing Jeff (as far left as it is possible to be on social and gender issues) and Jeff Geerling (who is apparently conservative on these same issues) because I'm listening to them talk about homelab stuff, not telling me who to vote for etc.

Hey, does anyone have good alternatives to CloudFlare to host my dns but also still safely self host things?

How is it "open source" with all that bloatware garbage it has? There is nothing open source about it from what I saw.

What are some some good distributions on the other end? Is there like a communist, ally software distribution? Everything is political.

Everything, every fucking thing on the right to the left Is designated as far right fascist these days, stop wasting my time.
