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.
Ffs i didn’t know 1password an futo were also part of this. My employer uses 1password for everything, guess i have one more thing to be annoying about now.
Damnit. I’m using the FUTO swipe keyboard straight from their fdroid repo.
You know what?
Fuck that. As an open source dev, my solidarity is needed, and it isn’t lesser than the convenience their keyboard gives. It may be a small gesture, but it’s better than ignoring my principles.
Heliboard and florid seems to be solid. Heliboard is even crowd sourcing training their swiping word prediction engine.
Damnit.
I liked 1Password but I’ll be god damned if I’m giving them any more money.
