MODERATORS
Not technically true, the anduril employees and VC vultures are in the steering council, but the thing is that the SC itself is organized horribly and doesn't do anything useful, so their influence is actually just being losers and not having any good ideas.
The NixOS foundation is also a skeleton crew of like, half a dozen people (being incredibly generous it's probably just 2 people) who you will never know and don't interact with. They also have no moderators because the community is mostly made up of cis-men who enjoy anti-woke crusades.
Really, the political economy of NixOS is GitHub Actions and AWS S3 buckets and the legion of unpaid, burnt out volunteers. NixOS has no real funding model or compensation.
Oh okay, that makes sense that Anduril hitlerites dont have that much control in practi-
lmao, "open source" (free software minus any political consciousness) was a mistake.
The moderator purge started because they thought one of the moderators was too woke (EU liberalism is too woke) and then tried to sneakily replace them with a hitlerite techbro. It was a battle between liberals in the US and liberals in the EU after electoralism reproduced the same crisis.
All the moderators mass resigned when they realized what was happening. Of course, the NixOS "community" doesnt feel phased because it was already a Nazi bar.
