    DEI is a discriminatory policy for a repo? Granted I’m no programmer, but that feels like a made up “problem” to be solving for something like X.org. The README looks like the ravings of a spurned ex employee or someone that may need some professional help.

      Yeah that’s a bunch of red flags right off the bat.

      Isn’t X effectively dead anyway, and most people moving to Wayland?

        It’s not just effectively dead. A lot of people, who were core contributors to the project, declared it impossible to maintain, in modern scenarios. Does it still work? Most of the time. But it comes at a massive cost of having to deal with 40 years of tech debt, and band-aid decisions.

        But even if you forget about that, this readme is a sign of major mental illness

    This is the childish actions of a whiny technofascists that’s gotten himself banned for cause. Note the open bigotry right in the README. For some odd reason he feels the need to make an anti-DEI statement. Treat it like the far-right dog whistle it is.
