Regarding The Hyprland & Vaxry Situation

Recently there a situation between Vaxry the developer of Hyprland and Lyude Paul a member of the Freedesktop Board and Code of Conduct enforcement team and the best way to describe this is an absolute hellscape of arguments.

We shouldn't forget that a CoC (you could also call it "diligence in communication" [DiC]) is a huge pillar for our society.

[guyblack]

thank tux you made a video on this, I was getting worried I'd have to think and form my own opinion in the matter

[rjawiygvozd]

most people who just install hyprland from the repos and have probably never heard about any community (like me) are crawling from under a rock and being like "wut? who's this?" and 15 minutes later they forget about the whole thing

[philipmrch]

This is why Linus Torvalds saying that you should find people you like working with is so important.

[StarlordStavanger]

"Most of actually adults." LMAO

[brendlowert]

It's called Discord for a reason.

[JmbFountain]

Tbf, if distros start pulling packages for developer/community toxicity, we'll barely have distros anymore.

Hi traveller, feel free to rest here. have some snacks before you continue with your journey into the pits of this comment section

Installed hyprland a week ago, it's great, don't care about the drama.

[NiceMicroTV]

It makes zero sense to have developers running chatrooms. I personally would not want to be responsible for any kind of internet mass communication channel in any way, shape or form.

[PrathamPatel]

> remove hyprland because toxic <whoever/whatever>
so same for gnome too?

[Rarisma]

Can someone explain why Vaxry actually recieved an email from FDO if hyprland has nothing to do with it?

[CEOofGameDev]

>the anime wm has stupid discord drama all over it.
Who could have possible foreseen this?

6:23 "It's not as bad as 4chan or kiwi farms. It's about as bad as Twitter."
Three months later, and Twitter is basically the new 4chan.

The outcome of this will be interesting. Hyprland is currently the best tiling compositor, and I don’t think anyone is wanting to fork it, so vaxry is going to probably continue being a major player in the space.

[ayaya-ayaya]

I could add a CoC stating: "Just leave people alone." Then I could pre-emptively ban all Twitter users.

[johanngambolputty]

Actually, I like being able to hop into a project specific discord and ask casually for advice from other users, I find it super handy. It's like an actually good version of LLM's... asking other people.

[KozmoPoly]

I couldn't care less about how 'nice' the people who develop the software I use are, that said I don't use Hyprland and if I had to choose between it or an interchangeable project where both meet my needs, I would go with the one with the 'nicer' developer/ community.

That said, contribution bans should be used on people that try to sabotage/ add malware/ backdoors to the project.

[tranthien]

Honestly, I didn't even know this existed.

I like cheese. Cheese has no drama. Can‘t we just ignore shit and eat cheese together? I have cheese and am willing to share…
