Yeah, keeping it too vague to be useful.

I kinda assume from the post that he's calling out people who roll a thinly-skinned version of Ubuntu, call it a new distro, and setup a new domain to pitch it with a Donate button. But these usually fail to gain much traction, so it's hard to discern whether he's calling out a particularly large or popular distro in particular, or if he's instead calling out contributors within certain communities.

Pandora comes to mind, although it's not a desktop I guess lol

I assume the author doesn’t want to make accusations for fear of liability. Which makes the piece kinda weak.

Yeah, this reads like a very long subtweet, but of what?
