      “Is cooked”, meaning “Is in trouble” or “Is in some shit”.

      Hyprland’s dev got themselves into some internet fight because they associated themselves with a transphobe and Freedesktop people decided this was enough.

        You’d imagine freeDesktop devs to be more mature about something like that compared to a young adult, and end up being wrong and unsurprised

          Eh, I’ll be honest. Having read the posts here (from both Vaxry AND Freedesktop) about the subject:

          It does seem like Vaxry is just a well-meaning software dev caught up in shit he didn’t ask for. He wasn’t the person who made the comment for one thing.

          But also I kinda get Freedesktop’s angle here, being a queer person myself. I’ve seen communities I previously cared about get ship-of-theseused into places that are deeply unwelcoming to people like me due to brushing off this kind of ‘joke’. You give the -phobes an inch they WILL take the entire road.
