I only found this thread because @Ferryman and @prollyanotherlurker mentioned Drew as the maintainer of Sway over in the Linux thread.

Drew DeVault has single handedly put me off of using or recommending Wayland for the foreseeable future. When I do consider it again, I'll definitely look into Hyprland rather than Sway. Even though I've use i3 for years, and generally prefer software written in C.

Drew is a boil on the back of Open Source software, and I am glad to know to avoid his retardation. He definitely strikes me as a person who spends too much time online rather than with those around him.
fortunately you can disable all the eyecandy stuff in hyprland, and make it act pretty much like i3. (well depending on how you specifically use i3, I'm sure almost anything from it could be replicated in hyprland though it's one of the most flexible window managers/compositors I've tried)

The biggest hassle in my experience trying to set up an i3-like hyprland the last time I tried Wayland was getting window splits to follow i3's division style instead of bspwm's, but there's a plugin for that.
 
Apologies if this has been brought up in another thread or I just missed it; but it seems that Drew has come under fire from Lunduke in a recent video. Brodie Robertson is also featured.

YT recommended me a response to this video from a normie linux "youtube guy" concerning this video. It's good to see more eyes on these men.
There are a few honorable mentions as well throughout the video like GitHub's host, Microsoft (little company, probably never heard of it) has a policy which encourages gender-affirming care for children as young as 3 years old. It's a Lunduke video so he jumps around quite a bit.

Disturbingly there are a lot of retards in the comments which seem to conflate this video with an attack specifically against open-source or the idea that Lunduke is supportive of the age-verification push, which i don't know about you but it sounds like a cope. Seems like a good number of viewers are still so mind-raped by their neo-liberal idealist version of "libertarianism" that they can't bring themselves to shit on pedophiles.
Surely many good things will come out of this and the FOSS community won't relentlessly defend the most repugnant of our species.. definitely not.

is the "normie" guy distrotube? I saw his video in my recommended videos. I didn't watch it. I've seen plenty of his stuff as a linux autist though. If it distrotube had anything worth seeing on it I'll check it out.

also cmon the neo-liberal progressive types probably think actual libertarians are nazi's what these faggots believe I wouldn't even call a bastardized version of libertarianism. They believe what the cathedral has convinced them is the right thing to think about X subject, and that's that. A lot of them would probably say they are "communists" or "anarchists" if you asked them what they were.

Yep; there's nothing that he adds to the discussion. The problem with Distrotube is that he doesn't like upsetting people so he tries to read a needle that really doesn't need to be threaded.

Eh, most modern libertarianism now is just "let people do what they want, as long as they don't hurt me" and they don't understand second or third degree side-effects/consquences. It has created this form of politic which looks almost indistinguishable from neo-liberalism.

Actually idk about that. I've seen him piss people off with his videos before. Actually quite a few times. He doesn't go out and say anything crazy. Definitely nothing people would even consider edgy by this sites standards. And he isn't a kike like Lunduke so he doesn't go the intentionally misrepresenting information to piss people off deliberately route like Lunduke. Instead he just tries to be overall reasonable, and level headed, while sticking to a fairly orthodox FOSS mindset. And that's enough to make open sourc MIT troons hate him. Like saying people should try not giving a fuck if someone else has a different opinion about some political issue because it's bad for your mental health, and dividing the open source community over it is bad for everyone. Or pointint out the bad faith actors trying to subvert open source with the ""Ethical source"" movement. Saying people shouldn't doom scroll, because again it's bad for your metnal health. All things that probably shouldn't have been controversial, and I would say they were all objectively correct. But it's still enough to make trannies act like he's saying TTD or something.

All that said, even though the topics were overall mild, he definitely knew he was going to get the reaction he did before he made them. So I don't think he's that averse to upsetting people. (you can check the comments on any of the videos he's done covering any topic somewhat similar to the ones I mentioned above to see what I mean).

"most libertarianism" what does that even mean?

The only time I've ever seen anyone describe libertarian ideas like that they weren't libertarians they were either far right grifters like when I hear Nick Fuentes talk shit about what he thinks libertarians want or socialists trying to strawman what libertarian's think. Usually they don't even seem to actually know what a libertarian would say about the topic they're discussing. Anyone that thinks a libertarian would be fine with people doing literally anything if it doesn't hurt someone else directly is either lying, or they have no idea what they're talking about. At least no right wing libertarian would accept that. And I would argue anything outside of a right wing hopean libertarian isn't a libertarian they're just a liberal.

Anyone who have watched american libertarian party conference. The "i want faggots to grow weed and defend it with their machineguns" "people" have been majority of libertarians especially in the 2000 and they are still ones that run the american libertarian party. While there always been sensible people in that movement like Hoppe, Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell etc however it have been completley infiltrated by degenerates. Infact the only libertarian movement that i am aware of that haven't meet that fate is polish one however only because it since its inception was cult of Korwin.

And they have no idea how much this is damaging on the long run. While "authoritarianism" one can feel the effects at the moment, "libertine freedom" you usually get secondary or tertiary effects and people turn a blind eye.
