Not to downplay the problems on xorg and I am happy it's getting forked, but wtf is up with "No DEI" "Make X great again" in the README... Doesn't convince me at all that this project is going to stay intact and upkept on the long term.
Edit: added some words
Edit2: yeah okay, he's a complete nutjob and a shitty person. See link below

Hmm
Welp
Seriously though, fuck this guy and his project. Refuse to support it. In fact, use an alt account to introduce subtle bugs and flaws to the codebase if you can. It’s always a good day to fuck with Nazis. And this right here is a project run by a Nazi.
Edit: if anyone dares to whinge about “getting political” with my comment in this community: this is a screencap of the fucking
README.MD. It’s an inherently, overtly political commentary in the project that’s clearly friendly to an authoritarian regime. Fuck all that noise.propitiouspanda
in reply to gravitas_deficiency • • •Honestly, fuck everyone who is hating on this project because the owner has different views than them.
It just shows how you people always try to strong-arm those who disagree with you into doing your fucking bidding.
You're making things worse without even realizing it.

in reply to HereIAm • • •You can do whatever you want and people can criticize you for it.
You're abetting the cultural divide when you say "fuck this software because it doesn't include DEI."
I know it feels good for people like you to join in the hysteria, but you're making things worse without even realizing it.
