MKBHD is a tech youtuber (maybe the biggest?) who normally uses a Mac, but he got a Framework 13 Pro with Ubuntu and has been using it for a few weeks now.

I responded to another comment with a more thorough explanation if you’re interested.
But they gave money to Omarchy, DHH project, and he has become extremely right-wing.
I think they gave him a Framework laptop so that he could ensure Omarchy works well on it, not money, right?
You might be right. They were (are?) funding hyprland to the tune of 600/mo. They definitely donated hardware and provided first hand social media promoting Omarchy.
And Hyprland isn’t otherwise controversial, right, other than being picked by DHH to use in Omarchy?
Hyprland is also somewhat controversial if I’m not mistaken but not like DHH or omarchy. The people running the project have had some shitty transphobic takes and generally been poorly socialized asshats at certain points or something like that. But not overt Nazis, just ignorant and shitty at times. I dunno what ended up happening with any of those issues, from what I heard they were most loudly a thing a while ago now (I don’t use a standalone window manager and really haven’t followed things)
Hopefully someone can add some more context, but you should be able to research the stuff with hyprland and decide how that does or doesnt inform your choices, I think info about it should be relatively easy to find
Haha, I’m mainly asking to ensure we’re spreading correct information here - I’m not interested in Hyprland for other reasons already :) Thanks!
Gotcha!
Hope you have a lovely day ☺️
