I really liked his "Linux sucks" presentations when I watched them many years ago, but I didn't know anything about him beyond that. Then some time last year I saw that he made another one, and I decided to watch it mainly for nostalgia, and I was shocked to see so many points about how linux companies are woke, something about opensuse firing anyone who was right-wing and redhat doing some white shaming move or something. I paused, checked his actual channel and holy shit. More than 90% was anti-woke "journalism", and has been for years now. I was severely disappointed.
Niccolò, KDE developer, made a video about Bryan's... everything. It's revolting. People still bringing up his stuff must be either unaware and thus should be informed, or they're complicit. Having talked to a few, I've noticed it's usually the latter.
Just finished watching it, and honestly that's the idea I got after those red flags that jumpscared me when I was watching that linux sucks video. I think I watched them up until 2018, and I remember finding them entertaining and they always ended on a postive note, but I knew absolutely nothing about Lunduke apart from those 4 or 5 videos, that's why I was so shocked to find out that he's a generic right wing parrot.
As a sidenote, Niccolò seems like a really cool guy. Thanks for sharing the video, I subbed
Glad you liked Nicco and found it informative. I think his takes are usually grounded, and his software development background helps. I certainly like him a lot better than most tech influencers, if he even counts as one.
I knew my OS of choice was awesome but damn. 💗
His "Linux Sucks" series was also rage-bait, He's a shill & lacks morals & attacks any FOSS projects for not being on the side of politics that he is in.
Most of the FOSS outlets have outright banned him & his community from interacting since he's a menace
