CW: Transphobia, ableism, misgendering
I’ve posted a video from Nicco Loves Linux covering the whole situation to the libre community here for context.
TL;DR: Vaxry, the lead developer of the popular Hyprland wayland compositor and tiling window manager has been banned from ever contributing a patch to freedesktop, a highly influential software group that is responsible for the modern Linux Desktop. This was due to him violating freedesktop’s code of conduct because of his toxic discord community and crypto-fash blog. Vaxry then writes two screeds and throws a public temper tantrum, leading to inevitable clash when his nazi friends harass the freedesktop people.
(EDIT: Removed direct links to blog, the entire blog is pretty reactionary outside of the purely software related posts) The blog posts that got them banned:

Critical support to Red Hat Enterprise Linux and their never-ending crusade to destroy white people 
Obligatory fuck varxy. It’s easier to switch to Sway than to get help on the Hypeland discord.
How can someone be a big contributor to a FOSS project and use discord at the same time?
terminally online ones who put their self worth in terms of the number of commits they put out each day. Vaxry somehow hates socializing with people but also craves all the attention he receives for working on Hyprland.
disturbingly many cases
Fascists aren’t known for their ideological consistency.
I’ve had the misfortune of compiling hyprland and then running it only to be jumpscared by uwu anime girl mascot while my friend was watching after I had told them how cool Linux was.
There was a bug for a while where it would randomly show the girl when fulldcreening windows. Totally a needed feature.
idk, being able to download some software, compile it yourself, point at it and say “ah, this was made by a fascist” and then use something different, hits in a way on linux that windows and mac just can’t offer.
