No, thanks! I am happy with tried and tested Debian or Arch Linux. Lmao. Yes, this is my honest opnion as someone using Linux since 1994 when most of these new age people were not even born or were still on Windows or Apple ecosystems.

before I knew who was in charge of it, all the hype about omarchy felt manufactured and forced. now that I know who's behind it, it feels manufactured, forced, and scuzzy
Why does someone hawking a #Linux #Distro of some sort expect any knowledgeable Linux user to respond to a #Youtube / #TikTok #Influencer video splash screen style?
Has someone not left high school yet, developmentally?
I think it's laughable...
@FinchHaven @nixCraft the problem with this isn't the video format, it's DHH
@r0k @FinchHaven @nixCraft which is what makes your posts so dishonest despite claiming otherwise. It’s about the author of the software and not about the software itself.
@karl @FinchHaven @nixCraft I'm not required to separate the art from the artist
@nixCraft as someone who has taken a deep dive into the omarchy code base (and i'm being generous when I say that) I wouldn't slap this thing on anything other than a VM. horribly written and redundant scripts left, right, and center. series of wgets with evals that just open it up to exploit.
It's no wonder DHH refuses to slap this thing on some trackers. he knows, he's just not skilled enough or too lazy to actually fix it.
@nixCraft And all the shitty companies are contributing! - They're obviously trying to run a viral marketing campaign via social media.
