Pretty sure it was a Microsoft developer too.
Indeed it was, a PostgreSQL dev by the name of Andres Freund.
This is a misrepresentation of the criticisms towards the Loi sur la laïcité de l’État.
Don’t pretend the CAQ (Coalition Avenir Québec) government is particularly concerned about secularism unless it pertains to religions other than Christianity. It was like pulling teeth trying to get la CAQ to remove the crucifix from l’Assemblée nationale, their argument being that it was a cultural and historical symbol, not at all religious! How do you reconciliate wanting to keep a cross in your legislature with loi 21’s goals of eliminating the wear of personal religious symbols?
Note: the cross did get removed eventually after some pressure from QS (Québec Solidaire).
Separation of religion and state is something I am fervently in favour of, however I think going after public servants wearing a niqab as part of their personal beliefs while actively trying to keep a crucifix up in the legislature are the actions of a government motivated more by xenophobia and racism than by secularist ideals.
While I’ll always be wary of corporations, Valve seems to be maintaining an overall good relationship with the FOSS community (for the time being).
You never knowingly met a Linux user. Statistically speaking, you probably have.
The issue is that OS-preference is not very common as a small talk topic. This is why you should name drop your fav distro in every conversation.
I wish I could help, but the transmasc people I know are all way too cool to waste their time on Lemmy.
Can someone tell me where all the trans FOSS devs/enthusiasts hang out IRL, I need friends 🥺
~Signed, a lonely trans FOSS enthusiast (not a programmer sadly, maybe I just need thigh high socks…)
I’d say French press ≈ Linux Mint.
Intuitive, easy to use and maintain, but despite the lack of fuss still delivers great results.
