From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Code of Conduct enforcement team
Yeah. This sounds like a truly free and open thing.
Absurd take lol. Every organization needs a code of conduct and someone to enforce it.
Enforce it against unrelated projects not being part of said organization?
They didn't enforce it on an unrelated project, they enforced it on Vaxry, an FDO contributor.
If you walk into a job interview and they find your tweets of you saying the nword over and over, and you don't get the job, that's a you problem. Nobody wants to work with people who'll bring negative PR.
This is true. But iuf they enforce a rule that I have to wear a frog hat with googly eyes at home they can kindly fuck off, though.
That's not what's happening here. They are barring him from participating in their project, he can still say whatever the fuck he wants on his own project. They just don't want to work with him.
Oh, okay. Yeah. If it's their project they can do whatever they want.
I just remembered the issue as they want to enforce their policies on the Hyprland community.
That's the way Vaxry spun it to try making them look bad while he downplays his own behavior and malpractice. Basically he just lied and spread misinformation, he really needs to get his act together if he ever wants to work with them again.
This is a popular opinion outside of Lemmy. You won't find many lowercase "l" libertarians here though.
