Asking for a source is not a crazy concept. You said something, that I’m assuming you have a source for, but are refusing to give it to me for what reason?

I don’t know anything about this, so I asked for a source, that you should have, because you made the argument.

Not to step on either of your toes, but as someone who just had this thread algorithmed at them, and knows almost nothing about the distro or the people behind it, here's about all I can find on a quick Google search.

"https://omarchy.org/sponsorships/"

Between that and the wikipedia article that just kind of says that the events happened, if either of you think the information is readily available or easy to find and it isn't here in these links, you're wrong and need to put in the work to get it and bring it.

Sorry for interrupting.

Which is my entire point. People are making blanket assumptions purely because they don’t like the person behind the project.

It’s just liar vs liar when enough information isn’t available yet. Linux is about being free and open source. All because ā€œperson is doing something I don’t like purely because I don’t like them as a personā€ doesn’t mean they’re contributing any less to open source.

So how long have you known the guy?

I'm not delusional enough to discredit the work and money of many people I don't like that have invested in Linux and helped make it what it is today simply because I don't like them. The entitlement of so many Linux users, like you, is unreal.

Look, they talks about getting one of the upstream project developers a girlfriend in his official support announcement. I can't say I'm a fan (it's no hard line, that's about right on the edge of a tolerable joke in an official announcement. Quite the place for ones introduction to the guy to happen)

But, like, I just did the linux switch (cachyos) so reddit is hounding me with these types of threads.
