Summary: Nitrux is being criticised for being "very unappealing"; but a look behind the scenes reveals an angry reviewer (habitual mouthpiece of the Linux Foundation and Linux foes) trying to intimidate Nitrux developers, who are unpaid volunteers rather than "corporate" developers

THIS Twitter thread (discussed in the video above) was highlighted to us by a reader who had once experienced similar mistreatment as an independent reporter. These people deserve a voice and taking this public can hopefully discourage repetition. We need to protect one another from mistreatment and injustice.



"As for the corporate media, it'll injure itself to death. People are getting tired of what it's trying to offer."The paid press is full of people with a twisted agenda. One must track who's who (or their true agenda). Techrights has had a go at it for years. We must support community distros and volunteers who are technical, always placing them above the 'suits' and their corporations. As for the corporate media, it'll injure itself to death. People are getting tired of what it's trying to offer.

The video above shows what the media did to Uri from Nitrux and MauiKit. ⬆
