From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I’ve been in the discord and on github for a while

Oh a real life member of the hyprland community, let's see if the rumors are true.

has a bit of a “personality”, as many good developers have. Nothing wrong with that.

Well, that's some first-grade bigot apologia. I guess that discord really is bigot central.

Let’s hope this thing blows over quickly.

Is it because your little clubhouse is drawing too much negative attention?

You sound like you would be an awesome addition to any community really. I take it you went all in on this thing?

I’m not picking sides, defending anyone nor do I give a flying fuck about all this drama. I only shared my observations. As long as I can keep using Hyprland I’m happy. And if not, another cool tiling wm will popup. Bye!
