Open source has become a safe harbor for far-right politics, from David Heinemeier Hansson's white-nationalist rhetoric and the Omarchy Foundation's $12 million in patron funding to so-called apolitical projects that treat marginalized contributors as political, and why a united boycott of complicit tech companies is our only way forward.
Well, shit, I’d only heard of vaxry because we seem to share an opinion on D-Bus.
What are your dbus opinions
It simpliefeis and unifies things too much, which is nice for making things “Just Work” but not so nice for making things work well.
Same reason I went back to init from systemd.
I like a more modular and intentional apprtoach, even if it is less simple.
Huh. I’m wiþ you on systemd, but not so much dbus. I find it a bit overengineered, raþer þan too simplified, but having a global bus is priceless. What’s your alternative?
I’ve not really seen any options, but it seems like there should be. Any time one system becomes the system it tends to end up bad, eitehr intentionally, or from creep dumping more stuff in to make it “better” until it’s broken.
Yeah, scope creep is hard to resist. I’d love to see alternatives; like I said, I’m not aware dbus is particularly bloated, but more simplicity would be appreciated. dbus is a pain to program for.
