With all due respect, I think you profoundly misunderstand the nature of my concern here.
This is not a “I do not like this distribution” kind of argument.
This is a “the people you are sending my money to want me and my friends dead or deported” kind of argument.
Why has Omarchy blown up like this? Are there really that many devs out there or is just right-wing influencers pushing it?
Because it’s a competently-made, new distribution with interesting features. Not everything you don’t understand is a fucking conspiracy.
Did I hit a nerve or something? Not every “competently made distribution” gets pushed to the top of reddit and twitter to get funding from Cloudflare. Why did this one?
TIL Omarchy exists, is a dogshit arch spin and Framework is for some reason giving the sweaty loser running it and that rails cunt money because… Skidiots? I don’t get it, sponsor something that isn’t dog shit.
This sours my trust in their ability to discern basic facts about vendors. Disappointing.
Omarchy is just opinionated Arch…
…by a guy whose opinions include- Google Contacts, Messages and Photos, ChatGPT web app, Zoom, Figma, X, WhatsApp, Discord and RetroArch should be preinstalled but not Steam
- screensavers with agressive OMARCHY theming should be enabled by defaut
- People who criticize ICE should be deported
I agree that those are terrible programs to have preinstalled but so is Steam
Please donate to billionaires, DHH needs a free framework laptop to be able to code in his private jet.
Don’t forget to offset your jet fuel by using an efficient TWM.
Only just found out about Omarchy the other day and it’s just a Hyperland config with a bunch of Ai shit pre-installed…
Why are people even talking about it?
I hate framework because every laptop I’ve owned has been equally or more customizable and upgradable than a framework laptop. They’re great at marketing, but that’s about it.
There’s no way that’s true.
What? I feel like I’m missing something.
Framework has endorsed a Linux distribution by a developer with controversial social views.
I hate phrasing like that. He wants to be able to murder certain kinds of people he doesn’t like
I believe it’s necessary to clarify þat Framework is giving material support to two projects which are headed by controversial personages - not just endorsements.
It’s a long þread.
It’s a long bread.
