Etch

@alice I see this a lot on the fediverse, people calling users fascists for using/supporting windows or people saying this like this, its okay to not want to support someone that appeared (once) in a podcast of lunduke(i hate him too) and its true that his frienship with vaxray is questionable, but i cant help but feel like this is a nice excuse to not listen to other points of view, Im not telling you to listen to the opinion of trasphobes/homophobes who'd rather traumatise children than letting people be themselves, Im just saying that people here on fedi take things to such extremes where words like fascist can loose their strong meaning. Sorry for the double reply just wanted to share my 2 cents on the internet. @lunareclipse @chirpbirb @solonovamax @luana

@alice I didnt know about this and I have assumed too much, sorry bout that.I didnt see the followup too! another self own.i replied to this and your other reply in that thread. the direct reply was to you but what trigghered my message was this section in @luana at wetdry.world (dunno if not tagging her is proper etiquette) "And yeah if you ask me the fact that the guy decided to drop support for linux and support only the OSes made by fascist companies might be enough to make the guy a fascist even" fedilab after 4 levels of indentation shows everything in the same "line" and i thought i was replying to a single big thread. In the heat of the moments i have made many mistakes that made it seem like i was specifically going against you, im sorry, ill try to do better.

@alice i am in fact ignoring duckstation, i dont use it, and hadnt thought about him since before this thread. Since you said "haven't heard anything, so specifics would be nice" i gave you those specifics, i can give you links if you want them (i would need to do some research to find again all the info). My point is that the AUR is a user repo, its very naive to expect that everyone will respect your wishes when you dont maintain the AUR package yourself. As a maintainer he has every right to change the license and trying to block repackaging, but since the code was gpl the user had the right to repackage it with the same license, the maintainer has the choice of dealing with this reality and culture in different ways and imho stenzek chose the least effective one(before the license change). If the AUR is hosting post license change code then the Arch team needs to take action. Im sorry for the long replies and if i sound confrontational. i meant to send this earlier but i saved as draft :blobPikaFacepaw:

@alice as far as i know stenzek is fairly problematic because he never thinks he's in the wrong, he has changed nicknames and infiltrated back into project that cut contact with him. He is very talented (he's the one that finished the ubershader project for dolphin after the original creator burned out) but imo he has zero social skills, its true that he has every right to do whaever he wants with his project but expecting people to stop packaging the last gpl commit is very naive, there are smarter solutions to the linux packaging issue that he will never consider because he wants to die on that hill, duckstation's situation is different and more complex than just users being assholes. He has something against linux too, he's the guy that dropped wayland support on pcsx2, not to mention the fiasco regarding some of his android projects where he stole money from patreon and backstabbed his discord moderators (while using an alt account for unknown reasons) @lunareclipse @chirpbirb @solonovamax @luana

@apps@toot.fedilab.app omg thats so sweet!

@raccoonformality Its crazy that if a dev never gives free content updates most of them would not complain but if you do they feel entitled to them.
