OP here - I was unaware of the message that would be displayed from Hacker News redirects when I posted this link as I (obviously) didn't read it originally from Hacker News. As someone who uses Fedora Asahi Linux exclusively for both microservice software development and personal use, I merely wanted to share this well-written post on the latest developments for Fedora Asahi Remix. I believe them to be quite impressive and noteworthy. And while I do not share the same sentiment in the message displayed to redirected users from Hacker News, I respect any viewpoint and right to display such a message. I can only assume that there was good reason for them to do so. However, I would have preferred the message include a link that readers could click on to allow them to read the underlying blog post.

Why should anyone assume there is a good reason whatsoever or are acting in anyway whatever in good faith? It seems fantastically more likely that they simply don't know how to deal with the modern internet and are freaking out and alienating people. A small but very prolific and energetic portion of the population are rude little psychos spewing trash every time they open their mouth and if there is anything whatsoever different about you from their perspective they will heap abuse upon you. Absolutely anything which draws a wide enough audience to your little neck of the woods will bring a certain amount of interest from the offensive set even when the community itself is well policed and functional. Twitter is probably the best example of this because rather than one twitter there are are a billion twitters each centered around its own users preferences and circles. This enables social circles resembling malignant tumors to act as magnifying glasses focusing hate on individuals like demented children burning ants. Not only does it not do much to police such it actively encourages it because the boss is part of the malignancy. Hacker News is the inverse. There is ONE hacker news and it would never tolerate posts of the sort you see on twitter. The only available venue for bad behavior is in the comments and generally anything really bad is killed quickly. It is certainly not a venue for alt-right trolls. That's not an incorrect statement its a malicious lie. If after something is posted on hacker news some little psycho outside the venue of this website decides to harass Asahi devs that is basically both impossible and unreasonable to blame on this site. It's like blaming the weatherman for the rain. This is what the internet is like now. Nobody can stop someone from reading a link here and then getting on twitter. Submit potential solutions to your favorite lawmaker because it wont be fixed here.
