CW: Transphobia, ableism, misgendering

I’ve posted a video from Nicco Loves Linux covering the whole situation to the libre community here for context.

TL;DR: Vaxry, the lead developer of the popular Hyprland wayland compositor and tiling window manager has been banned from ever contributing a patch to freedesktop, a highly influential software group that is responsible for the modern Linux Desktop. This was due to him violating freedesktop’s code of conduct because of his toxic discord community and crypto-fash blog. Vaxry then writes two screeds and throws a public temper tantrum, leading to inevitable clash when his nazi friends harass the freedesktop people.

(EDIT: Removed direct links to blog, the entire blog is pretty reactionary outside of the purely software related posts) The blog posts that got them banned:

    My favorite part of this saga is the chud dev trying to pass off the fact that there is no objective morality as an excuse for his behavior.
