I’m getting ready to do the same thing - just need a couple hours of extra time to take the plunge!

I’m a fan of CUI (Chair User Interface) problem

I still have a soft spot for the sound of a boxer engine

Regardless of anything else, I’m cracking up over the argument aboutobtuse. How dare you use the English language correctly! 😄

I’ve thought this too. The list should be growing every day.

Yep that’s I read from 2023.

He responded in a couple of blog posts:

• https://blog.vaxry.net/articles/2023-hyprlandsCommunity
• https://blog.vaxry.net/articles/2023-inclusiveActivists

I opened up the discord community just now to see what was there, and I just saw people being goofy and talking shit to each other. In all fairness, I wouldn’t hang out there either, but that doesn’t mean anything.

To summarize, I don’t see the Hyprland devs trying to harm others. Folks like DHH are a different story. Of course this might all change tomorrow - who knows?

I’m ok with those things too. I just recently found out about all the crazy stuff after the rubygems takeover. I’m not really a ruby fan, but that seemed pretty shady.

Edit: meant to reply to another comment.

Corrected comment

DHH is clearly a turd, and I want nothing to do with his projects.

I’m not sure I understand the opposition to Hyprland though. I enjoy using Hyprland, so I’ve tried to make an informed opinion on whether the project is harmful. Note that I have only reviewed public information, so I might only be seeing the tip of the iceberg.

According to his blog posts, the creator of Hyprland seems to have received criticism well enough (back in 2023). Are other people in the community the main concern or am I missing something? Forgive my ignorance

And cheaper! /s

I think there’s a healthy amount of bs in there (Chrome, C# as traditional?), but some of it checks out. I like a mix of old and new but try to stay away from proprietary. Current favorites are probably Emacs, NixOS, and Rust.

Comping the kernel wasn’t so bad on Gentoo. I hated compiling OpenOffice on a P4 1.6GHz…

The name sounded familiar but I couldn’t place it. I thought he was some old guy.

He even gave one of his eye teeth to make it happen!

I’ll see myself out…

This is what I love about Linux - always learning new things!

And if (A) happens, the money is not coming from the wealthy.

I’ve personally become pretty fond of the syntax and incorporation of FP features. In all fairness though, I haven’t written much C or C++ for the last two decades.

Rust incorporates some of my favorite features from FP with handy green thread ergonomics. I’m not a fan of Go, so this gives me a great option for microservices when I can avoid Node.js.

Yep - I don’t really know who these evangelists are either. I have read about “fearless concurrency,” which seems pretty spot-on.

I enjoyed using a MBP for a few years, mostly for the trackpad. I eventually grew too annoyed with the desktop crashes and iCloud bloat though. I built a new Linux workstation last year, and it just feels like home 🐧.

Same!
