Kinda weird how you find Nazis in the most unlikely places. Thankfully I was only using their terminal emulator so I switched to alacritty.

their whole approach to technology is so gross anyway, I'm not surprised these pretentious pricks are nazis tbh

Yeah now that I look back the whole thing with compiling the settings in and not using a config file instead is kinda moronic. People have to maintain their own forks of dwm etc. Why would anyone do that.

it's a cute project but there's a reason next to nobody uses their software (because it all sucks)

tbh suckless tools sound better than they are

wow! Software that you have to recompile every time you want to change a setting? Amazazing
