alt Hacker NewsBe a little more fair to Omarchy's strengths. It stitches together many things that work really well together. Hyperland is terrific for example and going back to windows/mac feels ancient in comparison. It's a good thing someone built omarchy.

Omarchy is a fine starting-point for ricing, but I generally agree with the sentiment that it's a LARP distribution for people that feel warm-fuzzies when they use a TWM. I don't think I could recommend Omarchy to other developers without insulting their intelligence, it's very much on the same level as other novelty distros like Regolith and Archlabs.
That's the exclusive work of the Hyprborean dev (who himself is another giant crock of shit who I wish just wouldn't wake up ever again one day).
You can install it on your normal, average Arch installation anyways. Don't need to rip everything out from the root just for a pre-configured meme distro. It's not as if Omarchy had hard forks of all the software it steals, anyways. It really is just dotfiles.
