The state of #Framework funding fascist DHH:
- David Heinemeier Hansson is still a fascist. He is annoyingly part of various right-wing tech communities. He created a spin of Arch called Omarchy. Hyprland is the window manager for Omarchy.
- Framework probably doesn’t support him directly. Previously, they sent him a laptop and praised Omarchy. They also sponsored DHH’s sour grapes Ruby on Rails conference last year. He made the conference after his keynote was cancelled at another one.
- Framework sponsors Hyprland for 600 Euros a month.
- DHH has not been banned from Hyprland and still files occasional bug reports.
- Hyprland itself is yikes-adjacent. Some say it’s on an improvement trajectory regarding its politics.
- Everyone posting in favor of DHH runs the fascist “I’m just a little guy” routine (see pic). Where you antagonize entire ethnic groups and say they are subhuman (e.g. “low-average-IQ regions”) then say you got kicked out of Linux communities because of “petty politics”.
