From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For everyone shitting about Vaxry, I recommend reading both sides of the equation, not only FDO/Drew's.
Just looked into this drama because I had no idea what the fuck was going on, and MAJOR YIKES
Nice job on not adding nothing relevant other than "(Folks that doesn't like the same stuff as I do) are (buzzwords)." -- you are not better than em.
Vaxry is not English-speaking, I think i read somewhere that they're from Poland
Well he speaks english so in that sense he's english speaking
Reading his side of it only made me dislike him him more...
The mail threads and chat screenshots show his side.
The only defense of Vaxry ever presented was that he was a bigot on his own discord and not freedesktop's. He's a shit bag and he can take his i3 for fascists elsewhere.
Exactly, vaxry apologized for the lack of moderation and took changes that prevented the incident. to which FDO said, "he we are onto something, we can push our divisive politics here" then got angry when he rightfully told them to fuck off
