I looked at it (here is the link for lazy people https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver ) and from the first couple of paragraphs it looks anti DEI although I don’t see how that is bad or how that releates to nazis but they do not apear to be nazis. (Sorry for the bad English not a native.)
The lead maintainer is an anti-vaxxer, conspiracy theorist, historical revisionist, and general nutjob. Links in the comments: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/38376251
The entire “non-ideological” thing is just him not wanting to be challenged for being a shitter.
I don’t know if the creators are nazis, however, there was an issue questioning the inclusion of the DEI statement, and in that thread there were several uses of antisemitic dog whistles, including (((echoes))). These had a positive like/dislike ratio.
Edit: After looking through their repo these comments have been removed.
Go read the first few paragraphs of the XLibre repo. For additional context, the gux was roasted by Linus for spreading anti-vax and other shot years ago.
What am I looking at?
xtrans is a real repo for the xorg thing, they changed the icon for it to a trans flag.
Holy based, especially after that cringe “anti-dei” x11libre fork with all the nazis.

Any context on this. I wasn’t able to keep up with the news. X11libre has nazis?

I just did. The first two seem alright, and seem like they’re just a rant of someone who is seriously fed up at big tech.
The breaking point for me was the last part in the 3rd paragraph:
deleted by creator
What is the future of X.org if all the mainstream distros drop X11 for Wayland?
Any other projects we should know about?
X11 is used in Xwayland
It is maintained by the same people and is on life support. It has been that way for a decade
