Ah, it’s a shame that we can’t just have cool software. But such is the world now, it seems. I’m honestly a bit surprised at there being much of that in FOSS, I thought it was really quite commie-coded, but it seems every second project I think is interesting is somehow problematic.
I’m on Hyprland at the moment, which I’ve heard a couple things about, including in that article, but I’m looking at Niri. Are they less controversial?


The website seems to work fine for me, but they seem to only support open hardware (e.g. Raspberry Pi or Mycroft). That doesn’t mean it wouldn’t work on other things though, especially with open software, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Echos require updates to be signed by Amazon, so it might require some hacking.
