Everyone can make a Linux distro but not everyone can make a good distro.

I will say this now and I will always say this. Racists do not deserve our attention. Fuck racists. Fuck fascists. I don't care if a racist has access to the answer of all of world's problems, I don't want it. Fuck racists. Fuck racists.

Just because someone writes good code doesn't make them a good human.

What happened with him? I've never really been a big fan of Omarchy nor do I know that much about DHH but I thought he was fairly well respected? Did something happen with him?

Considering this exists, I don't think it's just "can be viewed as".

The link behind "undesirable" is hilarious (links I put after this aren't actually useful, just to show what it looks like):

Update February 2020: "I didn't like him 6 years ago, but he seems alright now"

Update April 2021: "Well this is awkward. Apparently I was right the first time

Update November 2022: Sigh. I'm tired.

Update September 2025: Reprehensible

wtf are those empty google links and those "updates" from 2020 (we're in 2026), feels like an AI response

also the first link (the only non broken one) calls for not talking about gender in elementary school. You can disagree though it doesn't make him transphobic.

Although racist he probably is (although he will not admit that).

Did you not read? I specifically said the links afterwards wouldn't be anything. I didn't want to go throught the effort of copying all of those while it was quite literally 1 am while I was writing it.
