You can fork it, sure Linus is very respected and his decisions are considered very important but you can fork it and change however you want so it's still compatible with Anarchism.

I'm currently a part of a bunch of anarchistic ones, because I find anarchism the most complete approach to egalitarian freedom, they are not especially active: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/anarchism@lemmy.ca https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/anarchism@slrpnk.net https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/anarchism https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/anarchism@lemmy.fmhy.ml https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/anarchism@lemmy.ml

Anark mostly argues that caring about electoralism for structural reasons is waste of time if you want to improve the situation. I do agree with very slight "voting as a harm reduction" argument but it's very easy to go in the direction of actually caring to much about electoralism as a vehicle of a social change, which historically and structurally is indeed wrong. Direct organizing in the real world is what makes meaningful change in the world.

He suggest too that voting in actual swing state can matter, while if you are in a state ruled by some party there your vote doesn't matter in the first past the post system.

Anarchism is practical on a large scale, because you can network and federate anarchist structures.
