This morning my unemployed ass saw a post on Reddit of someone talking about leaving indeed/linkedin and an “open source ATS job aggregator and application tracking app” they’re developing (this is the GitHub repo in question, btw). Maybe you or that person in your cooperative can find it useful.

Maybe someone can get upset by reading that word?

On a serious note, though, on my first semester at graphic design a teacher once told us that some day (here in Bogotá, Colombia) a punk wearing a jacket or something with a struck though swastica waiting for the bus near the uni. Some old lady saw him and the swastica and passed out on the spot. Apparently she was a jewish migrant or something. I never even imagined such things could happen here but the point was to be aware of the things you use in your communications

I can’t speak for the Debian case since I didn’t knew about it much but afaik on the Gentoo side it was because its hard dependency on Bashisms (and Bash as a whole) so it needed many hacks and stuff to get around of those and make it work on the BSDs.

That it didn’t work because “it is just too alien to Linux” isn’t quite true because it did work, it’s just that it needed too much work to keep it going with Portage as it was (and is).

At that time systemd didn’t even exist so no, it wasn’t because of systemd.

I so wish Gentoo/BSD was a thing once again.
