In case you haven’t heard the news, Framework went and publicly sponsored Hyprland (the most toxic part of Wayland by a country mile) and openly shilled Omarchy multiple times (the pet project of fascist shithead David Heinemeier Hansson) recently.

In response to well-justified backlash against this, founder Nirav Patel responded with FOSSbro platitudes about “[creating] a big tent" for open source”.

If you’ve got any more updates on this self-inflicted shitshow, put them here so they can be collected in one place.

(In retrospect, that AI-pilled Framework Desktop should’ve been a major red flag they were gonna pull this shit.)

EDIT: Found a solid summary of the situation in the wild - recommend checking it out.

    Yes this completely sucks. I assume most open source projects are run by leftists of some kind and hate finding out I’m wrong.

    I have a framework 13 that I planned to use for years to come.

    Really wish they would have at least corrected this shit when it was pointed out to them.

    Guess I’m just going to run this thing until it breaks but they won’t be getting any more of my money.
