Please observe rule 3 point 3:
No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
It goes both ways. The situation is still developing, whatever information you have might become obsolete an hour from now. If you need to air your feelings, this isn’t the right place for it. It’s also worth keeping in mind that the interaction that led to this controversy was nothing more than an already opinionated post and a reply from a Framework employee who has no say in who gets sponsored. Even the person who made the original post decided to “let it rest”.
Be intelligent, do not be led into a smear campaign on somebody’s leash.
Overblown. You’d think they sold weapons to nazi, they sent a couple of laptops to open source developers which turned out to be assholes. People probably give more money to nazi when shopping and paying taxes
completely agreed.
TIL Omarchy exists, is a dogshit arch spin and Framework is for some reason giving the sweaty loser running it and that rails cunt money because… Skidiots? I don’t get it, sponsor something that isn’t dog shit.
This sours my trust in their ability to discern basic facts about vendors. Disappointing.
Omarchy is just opinionated Arch…
…by a guy whose opinions include- Google Contacts, Messages and Photos, ChatGPT web app, Zoom, X, WhatsApp, Discord and RetroArch should be preinstalled but not Steam
- screensavers with agressive OMARCHY theming should be enabled by defaut
- People who criticize ICE should be deported
Please donate to billionaires, DHH needs a free framework laptop to be able to code in his private jet.
Don’t forget to offset your jet fuel by using an efficient TWM.
He’s much closer to broke than a billionaire. 100 million dollars is just 1/10th of a billion and he probably doesn’t even have that, thankfully
That’s still 50000x what most have in their bank account.
OMG what a shit show.
thanks, I thought it was talking about some generic framework at first
Why has Omarchy blown up like this? Are there really that many devs out there or is just right-wing influencers pushing it?
Because it’s a competently-made, new distribution with interesting features. Not everything you don’t understand is a fucking conspiracy.
Did I hit a nerve or something? Not every “competently made distribution” gets pushed to the top of reddit and twitter to get funding from Cloudflare. Why did this one?
It was also features in popular Podcasts like syntax.fm and changelog.com I hear them a lot and especially Changelog featured DHH often, so I had a positive opinion of that name until I really read his blog and what he is.
Ah, the mod is a fan of the milkshake duck!
Framework is a small company. In all likelihood they just did a poor job of vetting the people they supported. That is a much more reasonable explanation than “Framework consciously support Nazis and agree with their politics”.
By the way, community reaction like this is a great way to kill any incentive companies have to sponsor open source.
If CHUDs start piling on Framework for something that turns out to be a nothing-burger I’m gonna buy another Framework laptop just to offset the damage.
What? I feel like I’m missing something.
Fuck pondering to fucking nazis, I’m both!
Funding a non political project when you disagree with the politics of the owners isn’t evil. I donate to the lemmy devs from time to time
Oracle funding Israel.
I hate framework because every laptop I’ve owned has been equally or more customizable and upgradable than a framework laptop. They’re great at marketing, but that’s about it.
You have laptops with upgradable GPUs? They came out with a GPU upgrade for my 16
Seriously though you can get a brand new thinkpad for cheaper price than a similar framework. The prices are eh.
