I recently learned that OpenMandriva’s president (warning, lunduke link as evidence) has declared the project “non-woke” and “anti-DEI”, which has resulted in it attracting a hard right community.
So uh… Can’t say I feel too bad for 'em having this unique issue.
It’s interesting that the people who claim to avoid politics being prioritized over technical merit in a project, usually end up doing so themselves. Nobody else cares about whether their Linux Distribution is “woke” (whatever that means) or not. NixOS is innovating with declarative configuration, Bazzite makes itself accessible to a whole new demographic, Debian continues casually maintaining global digital infrastructure and meanwhile in contrast, some are hunting for rainbows.
That forum post is nuts.
They’re both mocking MAGA while supporting MAGA like the chuds they are.
One post literally says “I don’t care” then the next line goes into maga talking points.
