I can't help but noticing that the open source community seems to be fracturing along "left coded" and "right coded" lines. Examples of left-coded software might include Debian, GNOME, Antix, OpenSuse whereas right-coded software would definitely include Hyprland, OpenMandriva, Devuan, and probably GrapheneOS and OpenBSD.
Using search engines, it is very easy to find many, many lists of what anti-woke campaigners refer to as "non-woke software lists," but I can't find a curated list of anti-anti-woke open source projects. I tried searching for inclusive software, and I get lists of domain-specific open source software to facilitate specific axes of inclusivity in specific contexts, which is very useful information, but I'm mainly trying to decide on a Linux distro. Antix seems the most values-compatible, but also seems to be anti-Wayland. Is Wayland considered problematic? What about Sway?
One thing that I find troubling is that the more I look for things that are some combination of anticommercial, antiproprietary, anti-bloat, pro-privacy, non-systemd (because systemd obeyed in advance re. age verification), and the like, the more I also run into right wing subcultures and rage against the codes of conduct. I'd like to be more open source, not less, but also more inclusive and less freeze peach. I've wondered before, am I somehow a bad person for being drawn to non-proprietary technology: astoundingteam.com/2021/04/05/…
