The repository for the previously private submodule is still called Floorp-private-components, though it’s public.

https://blog.ablaze.one/4125/2024-03-11/ is a maintainer’s official response to… Reddit, which crossposted me apparently. Hooray!

    Florp, to me, is not a serious project and best avoided unless you like playing with random hobby toys. Not sure why people are so up in arms over what some random tiny hobby thing does

      Ablaze was high school students making random hobby projects. This one got popular and it has obviously had a negative effect on the dev (who is likely in university by now). Sounds like they are also feeling a sense of responsibility for things they aren’t responsible for.

      It also sounds like they don’t really understand open source.

      Their Twitter makes it seem like they aren’t having much fun.

      Linux was not a serious project and a random hobby toy things.

      Hello everybody out there using minix -

      I’m doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won’t be big andprofessional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready. I’d like any feedback on things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things).

      Try to be less condescending less time about other people’s work.

        Nothing you said invalidates what I just said.
        I would not have used Linux in 1991 either, unless I was looking to play with a hobby toy.
