dillo gang?
After skimming a few toots by this guy on mastodon, I think he is a code/FOSS minimalist and dislikes the current javascript-ified heavy web and Firefox by proxy and is willing to accept chud talking points uncritically because they support his argument, not because he himself is a chud.
Also, he’s a pretty good shitposter: https://cmpwn.com/@sir/105076234374526664

This fucking shit will be harder to extricate than capitalism
I think the focus on webapps has to be because of 1. the profit motive, and 2. the effects of closed source development.
If libraries, dependencies, and everything was open source and software devs were working on things either in their spare time or owned their own production, I think we’d be trending back towards simple and elegant desktop programs or mobile apps.
Under capitalism? No way, just wrap it in electron and ship it.
Yeah as we get more processing power, you can just make a fucking website template that loads every possible fucking component it might ever need. No need to debug shit, just don’t add padding to the 50 invisible divs making up one rectangle. Don’t forget all the bell and whistle scripts! Load that fucking shit even if it does nothing.
a lot of tech people sound anti capitalist until they start blaming everything bad google does on (((soros))) and (((leftists)))
LOL he literally posted “kill all landlords” alright he’s OK in my book https://cmpwn.com/@sir/105044916635633449
