So much fuss over someone's dotfiles and progressive web apps
- Mmm. There’s certainly nothing else about any of the people or projects involved that’s likely to be a source of fuss, either.
  No sir, nothing but apolitical dramaless software development as far as the eye can see.
  
  Looks like I'm out of the loop. Care to elaborate?
  
  There are various other posts here on the general subject.

  Omarchy is a deeply uninteresting and partially-assed project that has been thrust into the limelight because if the creator’s political leanings, not because of any merits it might have.
  
  yeah it’s pretty amazing
  in one respect it’s at best one-percent-assed (for both meanings of). in another, it’s all ass
  takes special kind of fuckery to create garbage that fractally terrible
  
  My impression from reading the stuff posted here is that omarchy is a nothing project that's being aggressively astroturfed so a series of increasingly fashy contributors can gain clout and influence in the foss ecosystem.
- DHH has always had a cult of personality, since the very early days of Rails (I started hearing about his boring ass in 2005. Ugh!).
  He attracts people who are into hype. Around 2013 junior developers loved to say “did you hear what DHH said?” And I’d have to explain to them that I didn’t care because he seemed like a douche and rarely said anything someone smarter than him hadn’t already said many times.
  He is wealthy and has a soapbox, so he is a dumb person’s idea of a smart person.
  Since the start!
- Tested it yesterday. Don't really like it. Don't get me wrong it looks nice and seems to be kinda polished, but its way to much work to remove all the stupid shit I don't need. DHH says its for professionals. Arch and Rolling release distro don't fit with working professionally in my opinion.
  I'm happy if it gets more poeple to try linux but it's not for me. Debian all the way and despite what DHH said, you can install hyprland on debian (and even ubuntu) no problem. He seems to be kinda a linux noob :)
  
  you type “DHH said” twice in one post like he’s anyone to listen to, amazing
  (pro-tip: he ain’t)
  
  I've used rolling distros professionally on my one-man workstation and they've been fine. I wouldn't want it on a server without a regular update schedule, rigorously followed.
  "Polished" is not what I'd call the bits of Omarchy I've come across.
  
  been using Arch(EOS) as (mostly casual) daily driver (honestly feels smoother than ubuntu), what should i look out for?
  
  Nothing. You should only look out for things when you notice a need that is not fulfilled by what you're currently running.
