  That’s cool ASF! /s

  But I wonder why they changed the logo from a feather to a weird leaf.

    FTFA:

    The Apache Software Foundation announced last year that they would be changing its corporate logo and overhaul its branding after being criticized by American Indian activists.

      I assume it’s some middle ground of changing it, but not really changing it.

      I don’t understand it either, but thanks for identifying the leaf.

  What was wrong with the feather? I know some native american groups where against it, but i never read any good article that explained WHY they where?

  I don’t know why I keep being surprised when I go to a phoronix article and all the comments on the site are racist, I really should be used to it by now

  What if they partnered with the Apache nation or something? That could be cool. Establish a scholarship for Apache nation members going into computer science? Something like that.

  Can’t wait for the seemingly inevitable “woke rebrand” attacks…
