    Such an unbelievably talented and driven group of people. Having a full blown version of Fedora on Apple silicon would probably convince me to buy a macbook for my next laptop.

      Note that the people behind the Asahi don’t yet recommend getting a MacBook for the sole reason of running Asahi on it.

    Slightly off topic but is there a smart person out there that can explain why having dark mode on makes this website think I’m from “hacker news” and block me (I didn’t even know what hacker news was before today). I’m not a web developer and just genuinely curious how dark mode users get lumped together with an entire website I’ve never heard of before.

      I don’t think it’s triggered by having dark mode on. I have dark mode on and I’m not seeing it.

        I’d agree but the message on the website specifies it’s triggered by hacker news AND dark mode. I’m on iOS with the Noir extension for my browser so perhaps whatever dark mode method you’re using isn’t detected the same way.

      they’re using css :visited trickery and color filters to detect HN users because HN has been explicitly evading any other way of detecting referrers coming from them (instead of solving the moderation problems being mentioned)

      using dark mode messes with the colors which makes the text that’s supposed to be invisible, visible

          Well, that’s a rant and a half. I’ve got a similar setup and don’t see the same message, but that’s still weird.

          The good news is you don’t actually have to know about Asahi, they’re upsteaming all their work. If it’s useful to you, you’ll end up using it without even knowing

              Who knows what they are using to make that determination. Obviously you need some tweaking. It sounds like you’re reacting somewhat poorly though. Life goes on. There’s other ways that you can see the site if you really want to. Think about it from their perspective.

    I can’t say I am suprised but I sure am glad that the Asahi SIG has been so successful.

    Kudos to everyone involved!
