I'm glad they dropped the ban on HN readers[1]. That was my very first impression of Asahi Linux that I ever encountered and it's unfortunately what I think of every time I see it show up here. [1] https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io/commit/e0...

Several down-thread comments speculate that the banner is due to recent events. Some form of an HN block or banner has been present since 2023-03-21[1] (well, until about an hour ago[2]). HN threads about Asahi, while generally positive about the project, also tend to include trans hate and speculation about a pseudonymous developer's identity. Those comments are often "dead", but show up on search engines. This has caused real harm in the lives of Asahi's trans and pseudonymous developers.

people can go to github to see the blog post without the block: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io/blob/main...

Amusingly their solution[1] will likely get them delisted from Google: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/essentials/spam-po... [1] https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io/commit/5c...

Looking at the HTML for the blog post section of the site, it's not what's advertised, or they haven't implemented it yet as it's just the Google redirect. <script>document.referrer.startsWith("https://news.ycombinator.com")&&(console.log("Hacker News is becoming worse than 4chan. Do better."),document.location="https://google.com")</script> EDIT: Yes, it's the old redirect added in March: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io/commit/a7... EDIT2: per this new commit not yet deployed, the site hides the text but makes it visible if you've visited the HN submit page through a CSS trick: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io/commit/5c...

Cool to see this project is still alive. I made a small contribution[0] almost 1.5 years ago when this project debuted. Best of luck with future endeavors. [0]:https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io/pull/4

Looks like their website is built with Hugo[1], and Hugo automatically generates RSS. So you can grab it manually if they don't provide a link for it by appending index.xml in the section URL. Here's the one for the blog: https://asahilinux.org/blog/index.xml Might be nice if we have an actual link to the RSS somewhere in the blog though.

Doesn't seem so but you could add an enhancement on the repo. https://github.com/AsahiLinux/AsahiLinux.github.io
