So your response to Rimus actions is to fuck over hundreds of people, whilst judging his behaviour and seeing your own as righteous?

This was a dick move.

Because I value community, and I’m not interested in a community filtered through the interests of a profit driven company

I see you speak my language

That instance is closing down in July, so many communities are likely moving (or the members are)

I’m in this picture, and I’m ok with that :P

@supakaity@lemmy.blahaj.zone did that for me with a bunch of my photos. Not something I’d ever have done otherwise

Two party politics

What am I missing? If someone steals your laptop they can just mountb the drive in their own hardware irrelevant of your bios.

They positioned themselves as the ethical choice, financially supported a bigot, and advertised his distro, then made excuses for it when called out.

Kinda like you’re doing

I’m not going to dance around words because you want to protect the sensibilities of a bigot.

I’m not “meh” about denouncing bigots. If you’ve supported a bigot and you don’t actively and vocally walk it back, that’s not “meh”. That’s a refusal to acknowledge the issue and the harm done in normalising the voices and visibility of bigots

Nope. I’m not telling anyone to avoid Framework or anyone else.

But they’re not the “ethical” choice. They’re another shitty company doing shitty things that hurt people. That should be a factor in your purchasing decision, but it shouldn’t be the whole of it, because it’s pretty much impossible to exist without supporting companies like that in some way or another.

I’m not in the habit of assuming companies that knowingly supported bigots, the benefit of the doubt. If there isn’t a clear, loud and non ambiguous walking back of their clear, loud and unambiguous support, then why would you, I or anyone else assume they have done so?

Same guy, but no, I was referring to Omarchy and DHH himself.

And I’d argue that positioning their company as the moral choice makes their decision to support bigots worse than if they’d never positioned themselves that way in the first place. Which makes them basically no different to HP or DELL.

Care to support the transphobes angle with evidence? Or does it work like an honorary title?

Interesting that you chose to be passive aggressive and get your back up at the the idea that he’s transphobic, rather than simply asking for evidence…

In any case, he did an article on his blog celebrating Abigail Shrier and her transphobic Irreversible Damage book. I’m not going to link to his blog, but if you want to find it, it was posted in March 2024

I’d be happy to if I could find any evidence it were true.

They support and fund DHH

The question was are they moral. They’re not. The fact no one else is either doesn’t excuse that

Yay, yet another tech company funding racists and transphobes is doing well :/
