Leaving DigitalOcean, one site at a time

My frustration is omarchy getting more than $18 million in funding for some dotfiles... (i know it's an exaggeration, because omarchy foundation itself seems to be funding projects like Hyprland/Quickshell/mise)

but archlinux project probably deserved it instead of omarchy

(linux kernel already has enough funding i guess, so they don't need this)

Can someone explain me, how are they going to profit off this? they can't expect to show ads to linux users right?

Considering the multiple rounds of layoffs they have gone through, can't imagine how former employees must feel seeing how they decide to commit for $3M, which in imho has a more than questionable ROI.

I think this not something to ignore. They might argue we do not support everything they say. But at then the only thing delivered is the damage.

Great read. Great resolve.

A political analysis of the founders and leadership behind every product you use must be an exhausting way to live your life... but to each their own.
