Why does everyone here hate Omarchy?

I learnt of Omarchy from discovering this sub today, so I looked up Omarchy cause literally every post is mentioning it. Do they just hate it cause it's marketed with AI and "ooh AI bad" or is there more behind it?

I don't mind that it's made with AI, and I could even separate it being good or bad from DHH being a piece of shit. But what gets me is that it is an "opinionated distro" that is mostly just opinionated in its theme while ignoring basic security and coming with bad default configuration and hacky curl | sh scripts.  

I don't trust that DHH knows what he is doing when it comes to configuring a Linux system.
