I hope Arch is getting some funding from this some how...
DHH offered to upstream some of the funding to arch but they declined
Good on them. Taking money from the alt right is like the one bad apple that spoils the whole barrel.
But money is just money?
It most certainly is not, it comes with all sorts of strings attached and guilt by association. See also "no such thing as a free lunch".
Tell that to mozilla
Ironically enough Mozilla has funding they just burn it on useless things
I remember reading somewhere that DHH offered them money but they politely declined.
So I guess we cannot whine anymore that he doesn't give money upstream.
I’m more worried about what this will do to Arch’s reputation. They don’t deserve backlash but if people use this, and it’s as bad as it looks, people might associate slop shit with Arch.
Arch is already pretty well funded
