Honestly I’m just hoping that maybe if enough people call him out maybe he’ll change and I can use hyprland again without feeling guilty. I know he doesn’t gain anything monetarily from users I just don’t want to give him the publicity he gets from people seeing me using his software.
i’ve been using hyprland for six month, and even the nickname of the author i’ve discovered today solely because of you. You’re not giving him much publicity by using his wm on your pc, which i doubt has been seen by more than dozen people. You’re giving him publicity by calling him out on the effing internet. And tell you what, black PR is also a PR.
Not to mention that voxry is already quite public, therefore if he hasn’t apologized yet, he won’t ever, because, just by the theory of big numers, there were people to tell him to apologize. Also, imo, forced apology won’t do shit.
Maybe someday he’ll recognize his mistake, but it won’t be relevant anymore.
