The hitlerite particle CEO says:
We support open source software (and hardware), and partner with developers and maintainers across the ecosystem. We deliberately create a big tent, because we want open source software to win. We don’t partner based on individuals’ or organizations’ beliefs, values, or political stances outside of their alignment with us on increasing the adoption of open source software. We’ve sent out large quantities of hardware to folks at Fedora, Bluefin, Bazzite, NixOS, Arch Linux, Linux Mint, Omarchy, and many other distros, and have sponsored either the organizations directly or events with Linux Foundation, LVFS, NixOS, Debian, KDE, Hyprland, and others. Within the team itself, personal distro and OS preferences span basically every Linux distro you can imagine along with FreeBSD. I personally am running machines with Fedora (for machine learning), Bazzite (for gaming), Omarchy (general productivity), and Windows 11 (when I have to).
I definitely understand that not everyone will agree with taking a big tent approach, but we want to be transparent that bringing in and enabling every organization and community that we can across the Linux ecosystem is a deliberate choice.
Big tent is when you support British Nazi trash known as DHH. Framework CEO personally uses a distribution that has "Super GroKKK" built-in and chatgpt.
Garbage company, Garbage CEO (their products are so fucking overpriced).
Nerd fascism is the fastest growing fascism there is!

I want to think that DHH has gone fascist over a fairly quick period of time and people are still thinking of DHH, the guy from Ruby on rails. It takes quite a bit of time for his reputation to change, especially for someone like DHH who's been known for like 20 years.
I want to give Framework the benefit of the doubt.
We still need to put pressure on him, but honestly I didn't know anything about DHH going fascist until the RubyGems thing that just happened a couple weeks ago
Yeah but RubyGems broke containment into mainstream news. There's no excuse for a tech CEO who works with open source communities to not know he's creating a Nazi bar.
Right but the point about DHH being behind the RubyGems thing, I would argue, did not break into mainstream news.
It's also just kinda weird to sponsor some rich guys dotfiles.
Cloudflare sponsors him too for some reason.
DHH has been a Nazi since Basecamp, tbh. I think it just became more obvious as Rails (and, now, the entire Ruby ecosystem) became more and more central to his personality cult and pocketbook. I'm sure joining the Shopify board last year has only exacerbated the problem.
