Someone used to periodically fork my repo of a college assignment and change all the text to Chinese. I assume they were stealing it but I don't know. I think their name was spikerman but I'm probably misremembering.

Thanks for your service to the Chinese ๐Ÿซก

There's been so much tankie discourse that when I saw this in my inbox I genuinely thought someone was accusing me of being a shill for the Chinese government or something lmao.

Apparently the Chinese government has created their own "home grown" OS which apparently took 10 years and thousands of programmers and is basically just Ubuntu underneath
