> One of the reasons given at the time was that Framework was connecting people to individuals with "Hitler particles." I wish I was making that up.

This is just factually correct

Also this blog post only references Lunduke, who is a grifter and liar

Would you elaborate on Lunduke, for those of us spared from GNOME internal politics?

I enjoyed his linux sucks talks before 2020, but around the time of covid his brain become cooked.

He fully embraced culture war politics the last few years and is trying to infect everything in the free software space with it and personally attacks free software volunteer maintainers.

Just having a LGBTQ+-flag on a homepage during the day of visibility, or the project leaving Twitter after Musk took over is enough for him to declare war on your project: https://github.com/BryanLunduke/SoftwarePoliticsTracker

Heck, he even labels display protocols (Wayland) as "woke"

FUD being so normalised in FOSS that we get titles like these, is counterproductive and inhumane.
