    on a related note, why is there so much goddamn hype for omarchy? as far as i can tell it’s basically just an arch linux config, but every time i, against my better judgement, look at the comments of some tech thread, people are talking about how omarchy is the best thing since sliced bread. even framework have been posting about it a lot.
    so my question is why??? is it literally just because it has dhh behind it? <rant> is it because i am being forced to look at the opinions whose only experience with writing code is vibecoding the latest greatest b2b saas slop in the new flashy javascript framework and then deploying it on some platform that is literally just an aws wrapper with a 1000% upcharge, whose idea of a perfect operating system is one with an llm pre-installed and a billion flashy animations happening anytime you move a window???</rant>

      There’s a lot of hype for Omarchy because its an open endorsement of fascism disguised as a Linux distro. Its success would further entrench fascists in Linux and the FOSS ecosystem.

      is it because i am being forced to look at the opinions [of people] whose only experience with writing code is vibecoding the latest greatest b2b saas slop in the new flashy javascript framework and then deploying it on some platform that is literally just an aws wrapper with a 1000% upcharge, whose idea of a perfect operating system is one with an llm pre-installed and a billion flashy animations happening anytime you move a window???

      Absolutely. Fascists are not known for their technical prowess.

        @BlueMonday1984 @themagzuz I had to look it up, and (beyond that fashhole DHH)
        > Omarchy […] ships with what a modern software developer would need to be productive immediately, including […] Spotify, […] and Zoom.
        Yes, those are the productivity essentials for any programmer 🤪
