@freya @BrodieOnLinux I mean, why not?

  • That's the beauty of #FLOSS...

If someone wants to make a "Square-Wheeled Car" then they can...

  • I don't expect #OS1337 to get anywhere, because it's more of an exercise in minimalism but hey, I see it as a fun little idea...

Me wanting to do something #GNUfree and going "statically compiled binaries only" is also a bit of "headbanging against concrete" kinda style...

@notsoloud same with all other #Linux distros.

Now granted, #NvChad is basically what happens when #neovim fans want to make a better alternative to #emacs.

For most people, using #fish as in fish shell with #tmux and some extras could yield the same...

nodds in agreement

I just aim for a #GNUfree #Linux distro in the meantime, and thus enshure the maximum divestment, boycott and sanctions I can leverage without becoming myself an asshole, because the goals don't justify the means!

  • "#DoBetter" starts with everyones' own actions and passive intolerance and non-acceptance of shitty behaviour.

Let the old fuzzybearded dude loathe in his irrelevance...

@a +9001%

The #FSF is at least complicit by endorsing him due to #WhatYouAllowIsWhatWillContinue being applied and they are basically just a #cult that massages his balls, as the #LackOfAccountability & #LackOfConsequences are unexplainable otherwise.

#RMS is one of the reasons I want a #GNUfree #Linux distro:

  • Because he's been a net & gross negative for #FLOSS and #GNU or any #OpenSource projects progress not because but in spite of him!

@arrjay which is why I intent to package it for my #GNUfree #toybox + #musl / #linux distro called OS/1337...

  • Because #GnuPG sadly is the prime example of what @landley once said: '[...] #OpenSource can't do [good] #UI'[...]

  • There is nice looking #FLOSS but #GPG is really one of those things that gets beginners to choose violence in their dreams...

It also allows you to add some cool functions in your .bash_aliases if you so choose.

  • Like encrypt $FILEMANE $KEYFILE that then spits out $FILENAME.encrypted.asc as a #PGP-encrypted file...

Either way, #enc is a pretty awesome tool and I think it's one of those essentials anyone looking for a #TUI / #CLI-first distro would want.

So feel free to checkout #OS1337 & @OS1337 ...

@ivarch @landley
Not to mention a #GNUfree Linux distro is kinda useful given that the #FSF has kinda given up on being a net-positive and instead turned itself into "The church of #GNU" overflowing with Stallmanists whilst their stuff gets #bloated af and better alternatives show up.
