I've bought from them several times and it's always been a good experience.

That assumes the execs didn't just contract out all the development and neglect to include an offline requirement.

The designers weren't going to get paid for the extra work so they didn't do it.

Thank you. I knew I had heard his name before and had some "eff that guy" alarms going off but couldn't remember why/where .

And ~~nothing~~ one thing of value was lost.

My concern when it forked was that forgejo would last a few months and then fizzle out.

That doesn't seem to be the case.

I move my mouse and the cursor moves on screen. What other features is she planning to add?

Well, as I already said, I don't own a Ford. So I'm not sure how you think I'm supporting them.

But even then, your point is nonsensical because the Nazi supporters are dead and the current CEO wasn't even born until long after Henry died and the war ended.

Unless you want to get into North Korea style multi generational punishment. But I think we all agree that's a bad thing.

So unless you can articulate how Ford Motor Company today is actively supporting Nazis, we're done.

I'm not the one coping here dude. My choice of car today doesn't give any money to a guy who's been dead for 3/4 of a century.

Also, I don't drive a Ford anyway so go grasp at straws somewhere else.

I think you need to factor in how prominent that person is on the project.

If an asshole contributes some code to a project, ok. If an asshole is the public face of the project, well, there are plenty of alternatives to use/fund instead.

Henry Ford died 75+ years ago. Is the current CEO a Nazi sympathizer?

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 25 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This should get them shut down as a company.

It's easy to use and takes away some of the hassle.

If you don't like cloudflare you could find a VPS you do like and run Pangolin on it to get the same service but maybe not the same level of protection.

I use Oracle's free tier to host it. They're probably worse than cloudflare as far as evil corporations go though.
