A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You might’ve noticed Framework, the laptop manufacturer, embroiled in a controversy as of now. The Discord server is on lockdown because the volunteer moderation team has gone on hiatus, and the Framework forum post about the controversy has been gaining unsightly amounts of steam from people disappointed at actions taken by Framework.

I understand why Framework would support Hyprland as it is warts and all because, I believe, it's one of the most famous/successful projects in its domain. But Omarchy? That shit is new and unproven, there are much better distros to support.

I think there's some sort of a west coast trend towards immutable distros. Bazzite has the same kind of buzz. Haven't really met anyone that uses these distros around me, though.
