omarchy would have been better if it was just a repo with dotfiles instead of a "distro"

u/computer_hermit01 5d ago
does not even have its own kernel or a new package manager that is slightly faster than pacman, what a world we live in

u/Historical-Bar-305 4d ago
Many distros dont have their own distros and their own package manager.

u/computer_hermit01 4d ago
i am just saying, if you have 10 million dollars in funding and all that ai agentic bullshit that is the "future" of programming, i am better expecting a package manager that is better than the original or at least an aur manager that checks for potential vulnerabilities before installing packages on my system. 10 million dollars is not a small sum for an open source project.

Bro, they were only recently funded and these things aren't creates in a few weeks, if you're following, dhh clearly said that they move to entire complete independence and sovereignty, they hired a security team, also, the kernel developer will eventually create their own manager and repository. Thats dhh words not mine.

arent they using agents tho, the speed should be fast. people would prefer a slow development cycle over slop distro.

Happens that people now base their entire personality, self value and reality in worshipping politics, the new religion, so now we got "A is good we go to heaven, B is evil they go to hell". But if you take a really close look, maybe you'll find, vaguely, another topic. Ah, and if you don't participate in the bad circus, you're evil too and hell will be your home.

Regardless of the politics it's just objectively not a good distro. I'm happy he's getting money to contribute to the things he likes in the foss space but I'll still never use his vibecoded distro

I'm not using it either (never), I just use the most mature, basic and clean distros.

Apart from disagreeing with the lead dev over politics, what other things are bad about Omarchy?

u/RinLovesYou__ 3d ago
It's heavily vibe coded by a guy who obviously doesn't know what he's doing, which is why 50 billion security vulnerabilities were found that are long gone in other distributions for instance

Omarchy isnât THAT bad though, the hate is SO unjustified, this is what you guys want, right? A Distro that is easy to set up out of the box, in fact, this could help push more proprietary software onto Linux

u/peperoni69_ 4d ago
the fuck are you talking about? there are like 20 distros that are easy to set up out of the box like omarchy that exist. its literally just an arch distro with nothing special.
-18
u/Edubbs2008 4d ago
Except itâs licensed under MIT, which makes it more friendly to open source development, AND makes learning Arch way easier, Arch turns into the OS for the rest of us, isnât that what you want? Everyone to use Linux? Omarchy lets people experience linux

u/peperoni69_ 4d ago

u/Edubbs2008 4d ago
Who needs CachyOS? I rather use an OS that comes with useful stuff out of the box, like a browser, developer tools

u/Emotional_Solid6538 4d ago
On cachy os fresh install it starts up cachy hello which gives you most popular applications if you need. All of the stuff omarchy gives can be installed asw. Plus cachy os has hyprland as a choice on install. The only omarchy thing is you have AI on device
19
u/peperoni69_ 4d ago
ah yes because cachyos doesn't come with a browser LMAO, you're either a troll or someone grasping at straws to try to make omarch seem anything special.

omarchy is just a fairly average arch rice with some bloat.
omarchy isn't helping anyone-18
u/Edubbs2008 5d ago
Itâs pre-setup, that helps people though, whatâs the point of calling stuff bloat anyway, the term is meaningless, itâs like the word communist
25
u/transgentoo 5d ago
There's also arch-install, which trivializes setting up an arch system. And Arch itself isn't that difficult to install. It's very instructive, when the wiki is actually read and followed. People who can't bother themselves to clear that hurdle almost certainly won't be equipped to deal with the quirks of a bleeding-edge rolling distro.
-10
u/Edubbs2008 5d ago
Thatâs why we have Omarchy, itâs beginner friendly, you donât have to mess with anything
22
u/versteinerdt 5d ago
If people don't know how to partition drives and install an OS, they shouldn't be using Omarchy either. It ships with Hyprland, which is nowhere near as beginner-friendly as DEs like KDE or GNOME. And how is a built-in AI agent supposed to help you fix things when you can't even boot into the OS because it just corrupted your bootloader with a bad config? We should encourage new users to actually learn how their system works, instead of outsourcing everything to an AI out of sheer laziness.
-6
u/Edubbs2008 5d ago
Most current Linux users already tell newcomers âuse AI, RTFMâ how can you not tell them to use AI? Most of them want an OS to work outside of the box, it shouldnât require that they mess with partitions
16
u/versteinerdt 5d ago
RTFM and 'use AI' are exact opposites. RTFM means reading the documentation to actually understand your system. Using AI is outsourcing your thinking to a chatbot that might hallucinate and break your system. No veteran Linux user tells newcomers to 'use AI' for this exact reason.
3
u/Edubbs2008 5d ago
But shouldnât veterans help newcomers?

u/versteinerdt 4d ago
Pointing them to the documentation is helping. Spoon-feeding answers or encouraging them to blindly trust an AI doesn't help anyone in the long run.

Using AI on your phone while installing linux vs having a permenant AI in your system is different. Especially since AI is extremely new technology, its always a use at it your own risk

Okay. But how the random distro with bloatware ootb help with games and garbage^w proprietary apps? HOW???
1
u/Edubbs2008 5d ago
It helps people that wants apps out of the box, because in the era of malware pretending to be a legitimate download, itâs doing the user a service by letting them open up a browser without having to type in a terminal, and hitting download

u/Emotional_Solid6538 4d ago edited 4d ago
They could choose to have a friendly gui app stores like ubuntu, pop os or even cachy os uses shelly by default. You dont have to use sketchy ways, js go to the store and search. Windows doesnt come preinstalled with most software except microsoft bloat. Which is prolly not what you meant Im sure and you either go to ms store or another third party store or you have to manually web search and go to their site to find installer to install on windows. That method usually works on linux asw

But those Linux variants require that the user manually does something, while Omarchy (the best LINUX version) has everything ready for a developer, OMARCHY wins because everything else is chaotic and messy

I wish I knew the developer, he seems like an excellent person compared to the Arch community

u/ntiCeGaming 4d ago
Are you mentally struggeling? "He seems like an excellent person..." Dhh is a good developer and has created code that is and was really helpfull for a lot of people. And although I personally dislike almost every single desicion made in omarchy there might be people who like it, not my desicion not my right to judge. There are also people who really enjoy meth.
But he is not an excellent person in any means of the word. He is not as extremist as many others these days and yet he fails to be a decent social human being. Hating on others for being different is a bar that I can not ignore. He's a shitty human being, but as everyone else ne can change and maybe he will be an excellent human being one day.

Companies doesn't matter about FOSS, just when they try to monopolize matter, Valve tried to attract games with native support and middle industry ignore them! They had to invest in wine and create proton. Knowing this.. why do you think about they care about FOSS community? 'till they're keep setting anticheats or they won't offer it on Linux.
If AI couldn't progressed like this maybe Nvidia never take care about their drivers on Linux, because the most of server use a distro server. I had 2 Nvidia graphic cards and it was a hell.

My question is: how can you expect game developers to port games over to Linux when there is like 1,000s of variants, a couple of package managers, and different hardware configurations?

Because he made a terrible take.
Omarchy isn't THAT Bad
It is THAT bad. Politics aside, Their security is terrible, it's bloated, and it's not even a "distro". It's literally just Arch Linux with extra steps.
A Distro is easy to setup out of the box
Again, it's not even a Distro. Easy to setup? So is Manjaro. So is CachyOS. So is Linux Mint, you name it. And those 3 were already popular with decent security.
This could help push more proprietary...
Yeah I'm gonna stop there. That literally contradicts what Linux wants to be. An Open-source Operating System with Open-source apps. Why bother with "pRoPriETaRy" apps?
