What do we think of DHH? The Creator of Ruby on Rails. Let's be real, Omarchy is not much more than a set of dotfiles and some system config. It's basically just arch-linux pre-configured for devs, though it has seemed to have gained huge popularity. DHH is someone who is against the infestation of political bias in open-source software, and as a result of Omarchy's success it has also brought Framework into that camp, with both 37signals and Framework now being sponsors of Hyprland, raising serious controversy in the FOSS community. It seems he has become a fairly prominent figure as a voice against the troonvasion in FOSS, so I wonder what /g/ thinks about him as a programmer?Here's DHH on Lex Friedman's podcast if you're not familiar with him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vagyIcmIGOQ
Siding with the Danish won't make the mind-troons go away anon
>>106838606>DanishEw, same people who want you to own nothing and be happy and have chat control and digital ID.
Don't care, buy an ad.
>>106838641But I love their delicious pastries.
>>106838661>But I love their delicious pastries.Maybe, but I wish they stopped being dystopian as fuck.
>>106838533>against the infestation of political bias in open-source softwareEh, doesn't stops him from making right wing posts on his blog on hey dot comNot that I mind, but it's kinda hypocritical
>>106838533Who gives a fuck. There is no man worth worshipping. Not even God. Go make a Reddit post now and collect your BTC
>>106838710That's on a blogging platform though, even if he is a part of Hey it's still his personal blog. I don't really see an issue with him expressing political opinions there.
>>106838710>against the infestation of political bias in open-source softwareI may be out of the loop, but last I heard his position was "no politics in the workplace". His blog is his blog.
>>106838533The fact that he makes Reddit seethe so much makes me like him.
>>106838533The fact that he was on Lex Fridman's podcast already gave me a shit first impression of him already.
> Decent software in the form of SPAMI prefer software that doesn't want to shout at me to use it 24/7. That's why I moved away from hyprland and omarchy. He's done so much spam that some users think omarchy is an OS. WTF
>>106839210What does hyprland have to do with that? I agree though, the weird posts from people calling Omarchy an OS and "omarchy runs like a ferrari" is pretty dumb, considering none of the reasons why it's fast have to do with any effort on the contributor's part.
I don't like his takes on software. He's usually wrong and retarded about them.His political takes are decent, if a bit normie-con
>>106838533Hundreds of billions of dollars have been created by people using his software so he must be doing something right.
>>106838533>Midlife crisis>Better roll mu own distro and shill it to NO FUCKING END BY PAYING BUX DELUXE FOR RETARDED JEWTUBE FAGGOTS TO SHILL IT so that even dumber normalfag normies can try out linuxNothing good will come out of this. We don't need more normalfags on here>this has to be a fucking joke
>>106838773>>106838786hey is an email service, not a blogging platform. It's also one of the main products of 37signals which he is the founder of. So he kinda shoved his blog in a company website
>>106838533I don't use anything he makes but he makes people I don't like angry so he's alright.
>>106838533I'm lazy and Rails does what I need it to at an acceptable speed. Whatever e-drama he gets into doesn't matter to me.
>>106838533>Create generic rice>Get $100,000 in funding???
>>106841065Hey "World" is not an email service, it's a blogging platform for people that use Hey which you can post to via an email message.
>>106841712It's coupled to an installer, and has a web development environment set up + ready to use. It takes that bit of time someone would normally have to go through to get Arch up and running and removes it. Obviously who is behind it has a lot to do with the popularity, but I think it's pretty funny the big moment causing people to switch was just pre-riced Arch, it just took a couple of dev celebs to try out Arch and go "oh wait this actually isn't total dogshit like I thought it was" to get rid of the bad taste surrounding it.
>>106838533He pussy-foots his alignment with the Right, like Elon.
>>106842382>this guy doesn't share my unhinged and extremist /pol/ takes so he's not really on the rightThat's not how it works.
>>106842382He's not right-wing. Saying that you're not for the genocidal replacement of Europeans in Europe is not right-wing. It's common sense and it doesn't mean that you hate anyone btw. It's an anti-genocide position.
dhh is based. fuck the haters
>>106839550What's more impressive is he got cloudflare retards and even framework laptops to shill and fund it. It's literally just a shitty preconfigured arch+aur install and it's literally full of computer AIDS (nonfree software and ruby garbage)
>>106843346>It's literally just a shitty preconfigured arch+aur install and it's literally full of computer AIDSThis basically sums it up. It's intended for "Mac users" & *nixlets who cant install, let alone rice gayrland on their own
>>106838533Overall DHH is supremely based.Based in the sense his opinions are his own and he does what he things is right and good.And I also agree with alot of his takes regarding a wide variety of toptics.Like that quality matters, or that you can just host shit yourself instead of being cucked by cloud services, or that you don't have to kowtow moral crusader lunatics.I can't really say what I think of him as a programmer, cause I never really used his products or seen his code.He says that he's unashamedly OOP pilled, which seems pretty cringe. Although I also never used ruby. From what I hear rails also generally seems very nice to work with, but again, I've never used it so I can't really judge it properly.
>>106838641>same people whoI'm pretty sure DHH is not the one trying to implement chat control.
>>106838533>lex fridmanlol
>>106842314What sucks is that nobody else in that stack has got any money. Like vaxry for hyprland. Its just the person that puts it in a semi nice package (that has been done a million times before) that gets it. Its not like its better than any other arch based distro.
>>106847224vaxry is literally on dhh's payroll, he even started a company for taxing https://www.biznes.gov.pl/en/wyszukiwarka-firm/wpis/ceidg/8602EC57-1BE0-4E17-B9ED-D801A0CB78CE
did they bring the barebones Omarchy back? I don't need a fucking X app
