There are a few weird guys in there that I wasn’t already aware of. I knew that Louis Rossmann was kind of an asshole, but being openly active on kiwifarms is actually fucked up.

      Yeah, I didn’t watch him constantly (only caught some videos here and there). Its good info to file away, I basically have a lot of Linux youtubers that glaze Omarchy, the Arch but more fascist and AI slopped on muted forever. As anyone who supports what DHH is doing or making is on my suspicious person list.

        the nice thing about omarchy is that the fascist and fascist-adjacent arseholes naturally gravitate towards it.

          I will grant Omarchy that, it’s the perfect flytrap and litmus test for Linux users, a great way to figure out fascist or fascist-adjacent shit burglar by their response to learning what a POS that DHH is. There are several distros like that…

            Perhaps so, but this one is the giant 10km tall giant space elevator base station that stands out far above all. I pitched a story on it when he raised $8M in sponsorship for this dross. By the time I wrote it, a couple of days later, it was $10M. By the time it was published it was $12M.

            That was a week ago and it’s $18.5M now.

            So long as it was kept out of corporate clutches, that kind of cash could do wonders. It’s very sad to see.

              Yep, Omarchy is the most profitable and prolific of them all. The others are more ideological magnets that reveal chuds like metal detectors…I am learning that Artix is kinda like this. But thankfully I don’t have to use it, I could just install Void Linux if I wanted to learn how to customize my own install without systemd at some point.

              Even YouTubers are actively talking about it without doing proper research about it and glazing it. Those YouTubers are often getting immediately getting put on never recommended to me again, I will not have Omarchy, DHH shill factories on my feeds.
