Unrelated: the frontpage says: > the root of the name [Akritai] is the same word that gives us critical — which is exactly the software this effort exists to defend.
This is pure corporate slop feels good bullshit generated by an LLM. “critical” comes from “kritikós” which means “related to judgement”. “Akritai” comes from “akron/ἄκρον” which means border.
To be fair the article doesn’t sit well with me on its own, but making crappy, etymologically-untrue claim? Not on my watch.
