There are two groups of people who are really loud about DHH projects. The first is ones who are really on board with his racism https://web.archive.org/web/20260721200429/https://world.hey...
And the second is people who liked some of his earlier software, aren't overly bothered by the racism, and are worried that the anti-racists will get DHH cancelled and then the good software will stop. They feel like they have to loudly hype the project just to offset the negativity.
