 Somehow missed this drama: nixcon dropped anduril as a sponser because the people obsessed with censorship over on the fediverse complained when #nixos posted it on their instance. I don’t have a strong opinion on anduril, I’m just grateful we’re free from the tribal hell over there.

 I REALLY thought that Open-Source was free as in free speach.

Shame on NixOS for making it looks that this is not the case.

 All statements which start with “I somehow missed this drama” are good statements

 Huh? What does being dropped as a sponsor of a conference have to do with open source censorship?

It's more like, the conference organizers don't want affiliation with military/defense companies, no? Weird reaction...
