who messes with my post? someone put a link to ycombinator in it. Atleast ask me.
This is the childish actions of a whiny technofascists that’s gotten himself banned for cause. Note the open bigotry right in the README. For some odd reason he feels the need to make an anti-DEI statement. Treat it like the far-right dog whistle it is.
Yuuuup. Even the X developers all moved on to Wayland work.
“Together we’ll make X great again!” together with a Telegramm channel link
I pass.
The readme doesn’t inspire confidence.
Ok. This is interesting, if a bit conspiracy-theory-ish:
moles from BigTech, are boycotting any substantial work on Xorg, in order to destroy the project, to elimitate competition of their own products. Classic “embrace, extend, extinguish” tactics.
Right after first journalists began covering the planned fork Xlibre, on June 6th 2025, Redhat employees started a purge on the Xlibre founder’s gitlab account on freedesktop.org: deleted the git repo, tickets, merge requests, etc,
I wonder what the story behind this is. Why would anyone want to hinder progress on X11?
I think it’s more about the politics, not X11 itself. Right wing people are getting harassed as always.
They wouldn’t get harassed if they minded their own business and stopped harassing others.
Well I’m sure there are a lot of right wing movements and some of them are aggressive but I personally only mind people who don’t respect others and I haven’t found a difference between left wing and right wing people in terms of that. However left leaning ones do it in disguise and lie about themselves so my choice was obvious. I value honesty too after all.
Being left or right doesn’t make you good or bad. There are plenty of reasonable right-wing groups. However few to none of them identify as right wing. The Democrats in the United States for instance. A staunchly, solidly right-wing group. That most people somehow mistakenly think are left wing.
No, the people desperate to identify themselves with vagaries such as left or right. Almost without exception are some of the worst most horrible people you’ll ever meet. Only trying to deny the failures of their ideas, or deflect from the horrible things they want to do to others. Leninists and fascists are both Prime examples of this.
Anyone who talks or acts like DEI is a problem is a clown who deserves to be ridiculed. Its possible to have substantive nuanced criticism of DEI. Left or right. But DEI isn’t the problem. The people whining about it typically are.
Wait, what? How did politics come into this? Did they talk about DEI in the README? I didn’t read the whole thing.
That would be disappointing.
good news !
I agree. Everyone else here “supports” software freedom yet doesn’t like right wing people forking stuff. The double standards are so obvious it’s nothing short of funny.
Probably because they do it for bs reasons.
Nobody’s trying to stop them, we can make fun of them however.
Well I think making fun of someone is bad in general so yea not an excuse. You guys won’t even let us make fun of you because you’re everywhere and will get us banned on literally all the internet. Pretty fascist if you ask me.
It was a time when floss community would have welcomed more choice of software. Nowadays, people judge without even trying to understand why someone would disagree with them. Political bigotry is no better than religious one.
Hey those aggressive leftists do religious bigotry as well btw.
