Courtesy last week's Linux Weekly News:

From a Linux-related e-mail list:

I *am* very wary of Benevolent Entities, because we have too many very recent examples of companies "realigning priorities" when political winds shift. Programs and initiatives that have until recently been poster board examples of progress and benevolence are shuttered and defunded. I am concerned that we're only a couple of mood swings away from someone deciding that free
software should not be allowed to exist because it benefits America's foes. Many of us remember all too well when large tech giants treated Linux as a "cancer" to be opposed, and I can certainly see that idea easily re-entering some Big Brain in Charge.

It's started. From the Codeberg development forge blog:

Extreme right forces actively target members of our communities and discriminate based on ethnicity and gender, political background, sexual orientation, disabilities, nationality and faith. However diversity is an important asset in free/libre software communities and it is what makes our software great and development productive.

By targetting some of our most active translators, nicest designers, best developers and all other motivated contributors, they are hurting the free/libre software ecosystem as a whole.

Spherical bastards ....
