I think it’s just horrible news that the far right is able to concentrate a lot of capital into building their own orgs so that they can bypass and effectively do a coup on institutions they dislike, not for technical reasons but because those institutions are too trans, woke, and brown.

All of that can be true, alongside the fact that this can realistically result in a net benefit to the Linux ecosystem overall. He seems hell bent on getting support for newer Macs & and a better OOTB experience over all. These efforts *are* a positive outcome. That's all my post was about.

"Replace the Linux community" sounds a bit overblown. The Omarchy lot have formed a containment zone for themselves.

Having seen what’s happened to the Ruby ecosystem since DHH went full fash, nothing good can come from them having any influence in the Linux ecosystem. Best to treat it all with suspicion and not get anywhere near it.

You don’t even have to acknowledge their bad politics (let’s not let Tobi etc off the hook here), but the hostile takeover of RubyGems is extremely alarming and his crew should be nowhere near any sort of governance. Given the names here, especially Cloudflare, I’m very worried about their plans.
