In a video posted on YouTube, the creator of Solus and AerynOS called the money behind DHH’s distro absurd and promised to do it better with nothing. His answer is Barney, a Rust-based tool for building Linux distros from source.

      Of course, that’s why I go open source, that’s what brought me here to Lemmy.

      Maybe I am wrong to mix music into it, although you might be able to pick up the glove in that aspect too: Morrissey is a narcissistic/racist asshole, yet his music brings me joy. Am I a bad person for that? Should I stop listening to him? I’ve never really bought an album, and I don’t listen to interviews, but his music. Wouldn’t having a nazi OS be the same (mind you not this one, but something without the slop)? Using Temple OS would make me weird, sure, but would that mean I am platforming the mentally deranged?

        There’s no ethical consumption under Capitalism. I get it, too. It could be easily said that this very Internet that’s connecting us have some Nazi fingerprint since the DARPA.

        Your bootleged tracks won’t make a penny to Morrissey nor bring more awareness to him. However, with FOSS, we have a choice. Don’t hatch this serpent’s egg

          I can see how propogating their product would intensify their reach, but the problem I am having is that I cannot differentiate a good app based on ideology.

          Now that I come to think of it, I might not run into that problem. Maybe nazis cannot make wholesome code, because they are not wholesome themselves. That would make my point moot. Thank you for the gentle comment.

            You want to stay in Capitalism and I have other ideas. You think there is merit in Technocratism, I think that’s just another facade, together with Liberalism, to Fascism. May we never have to clash about this in the future.
