QRD: reddit's biggest FOSS android page has been hijacked by trannies who are banning "fascists" from posting apps. They just banned people from mentioning one of the largest FOSS companies FUTO, backed by Louis Rossman and other internet celebrities.

The background is that one of the FUTO founders/financiers is some autistic tech billionaire named Eron Wolf who once founded Yahoo Games, was associated with Curtis Yarvin, the jewish political philosopher popular in some civnat circles.

His only source for this is some unhinged anarchist named Drew Devault who apparently spends his time slandering tech-people associated with perceived "fascists" (including Charlie Kirk apparently).

In a pinned thread from yesterday, r/fossdroid tranny mod "KatieTSO" declared all FUTO apps to be non-FOSS, the organization to be "fascist" and any mention of them would result in a ban.

There's now a civil war in the comments between trannies and normal people who

inb4 "muh leddit", fuck off

FUTO is not FOSS. Source:

https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay/-/blob/master/LICENSE.md

I fucking hate politics though and I especially hate how utterly common it is for "le based right wing chuds" to make some utter dogshit like that chicken scratch license and make a laughing stock themselves
Hitler would be disappointed

>>108916525
They're all Jews though, literally all of them, Rossman, Wolf and Yarvin. Makes for some comical based right-wing chuds.

>Drew Devault who apparently spends his time slandering tech-people

Drew is a piece of shit sometimes - like when he tried to destroy richard stallman's life, but at least he actually cares about free software. He rightly called out FUTO for doing shady shit.

If you don't trust him, look at what GrapheneOS said about FUTO

Also lol at name-dropping Charlie Kirk. His ideas aren't immune from criticism just because he was assassinated.
>>
>>108916465
It is weird how people still think this is not already known fact that FUTO, Brave and all the other proprietary software is not FOSS. If you can't have reproducible binaries, and/or license is proprietary, then obviously the "source code" is not related to the binaries they share. Also it means, nobody is able to create actual binaries because there is no source code available and instead there is unrelated source code for completely different software.

Just think what you need, find closest real FOSS alternative (prioritizing Free Software first if possible) and use that instead.

is that the sourcehut guy? heard a few spicy takes from him in the past

trusting micah to be honest about anything related to rossman is pretty bold

Everyone involved, unironically
The jews for trying to peddle some source available shit and pushing it as "FOSS" when it doesn't even quality as open source, let alone free software which is an autistically specific label
The trannies for latching onto "muh fascist funding" or whatever

i don't even understand what they're fighting over (if they're even fighting lol, idk it may turn out to be a nothingburger)

classic leddit tranny move of accusing other people being fascist and doing the thing yourself to silence opponents

That's the whole fucking point
Reddit retards are having a nuclear meltdown over a "fascist non-FOSS company" because of some israel allegations, they aren't "based trad right wing aryan warriors", but the reddit community's /pol/ tier moderation team sees them as such

I don't know wtf a fascist is but I do agree that FUTO software isn't FOSS, at least the majority of their software isn't anyway.

So you've managed to round up two retards saying the same thing. Why don't you just say something yourself instead of appealing to authority? Retarded authority.

I think the trans side of technology is starting to enter a purist phase. Saying that you'll stop using Tor or Signal is just pointlessly kneecapping yourself, and with MicroG you essentially have no path to open source software on your phone. No path even to source available. You will have network connected blobs.
Without MicroG, you MUST use Google Play Services (or nothing, with degraded service). They approach these things with absolutely no nuance, and then expect reality to bend around them.
What's the Win scenario for them here? Someone who ideologically affiliates with them makes a chud-esque protest fork of Micro-G, no commits of their own, merges a few upstream PRs that had good reasons for not being merged? And then no one uses it and reality moves on without them? It's like that AI sloppa software list that says you shouldn't use anything downstream from Linux or Python.
Thankfully, I think purists tend to self-extinguish, because the purity spiral gets tighter and tighter, and it's already pretty damn tight.

Yeah fuck FUTO, I don't like when they try to hitch rainbows to FOSS programs and I don't like it when some loser neo-nazi does it either.

Futo guy is some rich tech cuck. He throws a couple hundred bucks at a random maintainer of a project then slaps their logo on his website to make it look legitimate while pushing some retard like moldman, so it looks like popular foss shit supports it.
>>108916465
>There's now a civil war in the comments
Fuck off OP, stop sucking dicks for ten seconds and get your eyes checked, there's like one dude whose upset about it and everyone else is some flavor of 'well shit I like their keyboard what alternative?'

I know, but the new moderator of this subreddit wants that low bar you have just described to be a blocker for any usage or discussion of that project. It's stupid, but that's purity spiralling. No nuance.
>>
>>108916922
It's a bunch of jews getting together to try to make software or something
The main thing they've made so far is FUTO Keyboard for Android. It's decent, but not as good as Heliboard (even putting aside the licensing issues).
>>
>>108917086
>but the new moderator of this subreddit wants that low bar you have just described to be a blocker for any usage or discussion of that project
FUTO's own shit isn't foss it's proprietary.
>To be clear, FUTO keyboard is proprietary. It has a license cost. It isn't free in terms of freedom or beer (cost). Grayjay is governed by the same FUTO license as their keyboard, and this license is more restrictive than a true FOSS license.
It's entirely on topic, the fact they're scumfuck losers is just a bonus
>>
>>108916465
Define "fascist" please.
>>
>>108916465
>The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).
FUTO:
>You may use or modify the software only for non-commercial purposes

So they are right. it is not a FOSS project. Fuck off kike.
>>
>>108917086
Why do you want to discuss non-FOSS software in a subreddit dedicated to FOSS software? You can go to literally any other subreddit for proprietary apps.
Do you really need to create the illusion that your jewish app is FOSS when it isn't?

Trannies really see jewish behavior as "fascist" because they think Isreal is like the third reich lol
Maybe Churchill was right, The facists of the future call themselves anti-fascist.
I'm convinced 2/3rds of Gen-Z communists would be NS if they weren't gay or brown.

>hijacked by trannies
You know, considering the low % of people combined with the high % of suicide, I'm starting to doubt that transvestites are actually behind a lot of these things. You know what I mean?
And the fact they're all typically anti-social or have some kind of social disorder on top of mental disorders so it is a little suspect how they get into positions of control.
It sure is interesting how free open source software that competes with big proprietary players is the target of these people I've never seen or heard of. Very convenient for the opposition.

>You know what I mean?
No. How is anything you've said related to the topic at hand?

Reiterating it won't clarify.

>It sure is interesting how free open source software
Nice mental gymnastics to avoid mentioning that FUTO is a source available proprietary software.
FOSS is about free as in freedom, not free as in free beer. Why so you insist on discussing proprietary app ina subreddit dedicated to FOSS?
>>
>>108918188
Of course it won't because it's off topic.

Couldn't care less about the politics of people behind FOSS apps, but FUTO apps aren't FOSS so have no place on a subreddit called fossdroid.

Where do you get this Idea that Rightism has anything to do with Hitler. One of the core tenants of Rightism is eternal devotion to the Jews.

As a landlord, I do not concern myself with tenants

I'm done with FUTO apps. They're not FOSS.
Even the name is gay. It's literally called FUTA.
