I don't normally watch him but this popped on my feed, and I'm pretty impressed. Dude really fell the Arch+Hyprland rabbit hole and ended up loving it.

Probably one of the largest YouTuber switching to Linux, and is very positive about it.

That Hyprland rice is pretty sick too.

This is a good thing. Anyone saying otherwise are no different than those petty gatekeepers.

hell yeah I'm gatekeeping Nazis and his horde of enablers

brb adding a clause to GPL that makes all computers owned by Nazi losers go up in flames

You can stay on your little corner then, while the rest of the world moves forward without you.

Don't get me wrong, I hate the Nazis too. But if you can keep a bad group from using something, the same argument can be spun to keep a good group from having it too. This is why open source never discriminate.

The devs may have iron grip on the development process, and they may keep the Nazi influence out that way, but they can never impose on who may or may not use what they created.

you didn't need to write an entire novel just to convey that you enjoy polishing nazi boots with your tongue

the gpl allows everyone to use the software, whether they are curing cancer or inventing weapons of mass destruction.
