In bizarre move, Framework embraces deeply extremist views
Framework, the maker of repairable laptops, is embroiled in a controversy, as the company and its CEO are openly supporting people with, well, questionable views.

I was recently looking at Framework for a new x86 laptop, as I believed the company to be reasonably aligned with my values (e.g. pro-repair, pro-FOSS, pro-humanity). But others have warned me that they are now supporting Hyprland, Omarchy, etc. They support these projects led by people who hold alt-right views, in the name of building a “big tent” coalition.
The problem, however, is that building a “big tent” coalition, by design, requires some form of value alignment.

Alpine is a “big tent”, for example, but people who want to harm members of our community aren’t welcome.
This isn’t hard.
Needless to say, I won’t be buying a Framework laptop anytime soon, which makes me sad.
I feel like randomly promoting a really amazing Free Software project:
Yes. Invidious is a self-hosted YouTube frontend. It provides a web interface for you to search/watch YouTube videos.
You can run it yourself, or use a public instance.
I installed *my own* private instance, on my network. It's working great.
Your browser won't run all the YouTube bloat. Invidious still has to run Youtube's challenge.
Really, really great project. Way better than YouTube Premium.
I wrote some code to generate a random name out of some of the wordchunks I had edited already and it resulted in this
this can’t be a real name
“Technology” being repeated is icing on the cake (“Windows 2000, Based on NT Technology” anyone?)

I see Omarchy being called a “racist distro” because of it being DHH’s project, which is valid, but I would like to point out that DHH is not ONLY a racist, here’s a list of things that DHH also believes (not fully exhaustive), with links to blogposts where he mentions this stuff:

I am not reading anymore of his stuff.
He also wrote stuff about capitalism, how executives making more money while working less than their workers is good, etc.
I can agree with some points (that are not on this list, I included just the stuff that I deemed relevant here), like him saying that arresting people for words is bad (tho he rly misinterprets what words are being said in those cases), but most of stuff he says is just… well it’s just DHH for you.
