The somewhat sexual theme of the comic may have caused the high amount of downvotes.
Marking this as nsfw would probably help alleviate that, seeing as this is a general comic strips community.

That may just be because of his dementia…

This is a good thing. However, the joke relies on the sarcastic nature of “being caught” liking boys. In an attempt to clear his name, OP claims it’s time to uninstall Krita.
The “calling out” is done by the boykisser. Instead of liking boys, the meme is modified to say open-source software. Thus, the boykisser “criticises” the reader, and by extension, OP, of liking FOSS software.
The boykisser himself doesn’t usually look like this (see the first image attached). He was modified in order to resemble Krita’s mascot, Kiki. Attached below is Kiki’s reference sheet, from the official KDE site for the mascot.

The eyes, the makeup around them, and the ears are pulled from Kiki’s design and put onto the boykisser.
If you have any lingering questions, or I misunderstood the joke, please don’t hesitate to tell me.
It’s slow, and not great for desktop usage. Also, some apt packages have been transformed into snaps. If you do sudo apt install firefox it no longer installs the deb version, but the snap. I (and probably many other people) don’t like this lack of transparency and choice. It just feels like getting snaps pushed down our throats.

Nanomachines, son.
