      Goddammit, now I have to find another keyboard for my phone. Any recommendations for one that isn’t supported by fascists?

        i’ve switched to HeliBoard on my tablet!

        i wouldn’t call it a drop-in replacement (i don’t think it has swipe-to-type or voice recognition for example, tho i could be wrong) but for me it works even better

        I use Unexpected Keyboard.

        It’s mainly made for programming or using Termux, and it makes some special characters more accessible than the classic keyboards. It also has a mechanic for typing special characters that makes it faster to type. And you can enable a compose key, which is something I love to see on a phone keyboard.

        Unexpected doesn’t have voice recognition though, but it can be enabled by installing a voice recognition app alongside the keyboard.

        You’re getting astro turfed to hate a company that is actively fighting tech monopolies. Please take a minute to reflect on why this happens.

        I use florisboard, it doesnt have built-in voice support but you can use a seperate app for that and more unfortunately it doesnt have corrections and recommendations. They are working on implementing them but even without that its by far the most solid keyboard ive found.

      curtis yarvin sounds like the name of a star wars imperial officer the nazis are getting out of control

      Can we stop giving a shit about stuff like this? Open source is arguably more important than a single peraon’s political beliefs…

        WTF!? “Can we just get over allowing Nazis into this bar? What’s important is that the beer is free”

        What a disgusting sentiment to see upvoted on Lemmy.

        as a trans woman i’d rather not promote and fund (indirectly, but still) the people who want people like me dead

        i’d rather their white supremacy, misogyny and queerphobia not become the norm in open-source spaces, more than it already is…

    FUTO is seemingly lead by an entirely unrelated toxic individual. But as for 37signals:

    The open source web application framework Ruby on Rails was initially created by David Heinemeier Hansson for internal use at 37signals, before being publicly released in 2004.

      for further context on DHH, CEO and founder of 37signals: he also made omarchy, the infamous dodgy-personal-arch-config-turned-linux-distro, is in large part the reason why framework is in so much hot water right now, and the reason he’s bad (and why we’re mad at framework for collaborating with him) is he’s an open white supremacist

        framework is in so much hot water right now

        Most people don’t care.
        And honestly, I understand Framework’s position. They collaborate wath about a dozen other distros.
