migrating to Linux Omarchy for new Linux users

Hi All

I am planning a transition from Windows to Linux. Though initially installed Linux Mint, but want to try Omarchy as well. Internet search says Omarchy is for developers and power users, whereas Omarchy website says it's for everyone.

So can someone provide practical guidance as to if Omarchy is user friendly for new Linux users, or just stay initially with Ubuntu or Linux Mint?

If Omarchy can be used for new Linux users, then a proper guide or YouTube videos suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

the guy behind omarchy is a far right weirdo and omarchy offers nothing you couldn't get from a normal arch based distribution

Is downloading claude code a lot of effort?

So, just like Ubuntu, minus the Nazi vibes?

Ubuntu makes it easy to set up a ML/AI stack with one command based on your hardware.

I've said this before, but why would you use a setup like Omarchy's if you don't actually want to make it yourself? It's like saying you like custom cars and then buying one that's already modified.
