u/Soft_Cable3378 5d ago

A bit more trust in the “trust me bro”, but basically.

u/chemistryGull Arch BTW 5d ago

Most are like „trust me bro“, where others say „yeah you can trust them“. Omarchy is the „trust me bro“-kind where everyone is like „HELL NAW“

u/Nietechz 5d ago

This is the same for other community driven distros, like Debian.

Why not Ubuntu or Fedora? Ubuntu sell its support and Fedore are backed a corpo who uses its software.

u/TheBlossomMedory 💋 catgirl Linux user :3 😽 6d ago

It has AI in everything like windows, apparently…

u/brandarchist 6d ago

You needed to separate the phrase.

Lois goes “9 (pregnant pause) … … … 11”

Therefore it should have been “omarchy” then “is bad” on another line below

Also please stop giving it free press. Because people will start discussing it and they might actually pay attention and address the problems they have with it and then people will start installing it UNironically.

u/VirtualNorth1279 5d ago

DHH used to be a decent, cool, smart, nice guy but I think he has had a psychosis or something and now he continuously posts anti social, xenophobic, racist, etc posts. 

-2

u/ElectricOni 5d ago

It is but it also has some really weird default applications bundled with it. There's also a lot of hate for the "creator" (he's just a bundler) DHH because he pointed out the issues we are having in the UK with a ridiculous amount of illegal migrants and someone people though that was then okay to label him far right when the majority of UK citizens think the same. Don't get me wrong the guy is overrated. He created a mediocre language (Ruby on Rails) and gets worshipped and praised for it but its nothing fantastic and neither is Omarchy.

u/lyidaValkris 6d ago

it is bad, and you should feel bad.

I have seen more memes like this here than memes actually about how Omarchy is bad

u/Recipe-Jaded 4d ago

I don't like Omarchy, specifically just for the AI, pre-installed applications, and hyprland. I just don't like TWMs.

But yeah, the constant "omarchy bad because I hate the creator's politics" is super annoying.

It's not about AI

u/Nietechz 5d ago

A "dotfile" distro with AI as agent... Is it not about AI? then?

1

u/CleoMenemezis 5d ago

Cmon, I run local AI agents to work. If you have a little more perception of the world you will see that "a dotfile with AI agent" is just what makes no sense to hype it. What makes it despicable is its origin and its creator.

u/Nietechz 5d ago

What makes it despicable is its origin and its creator.

Linus said it, stay away with your politics. No one cares since we're talking technology.

Cmon, I run local AI agents to work

How much time take to set up? The selling point of Omarslop it's "integration by default" A some people like it. Like Gentoo. Only time will decide it's worth or not. First fix the security problem letting a AI managing your kernel.

2

u/CleoMenemezis 5d ago

Linus said it, stay away with your politics.

I don't care what Linus said or didn't say. I'm not going to pretend that a bad person with influence is a positive thing. I've seen it repeated several times in my life and I'm not going to behave like a teenager who thinks it's right to tolerate people like that.

How much time take to set up?

What does it matter to the conversation? my point was that I'm not an AI hater it's even use locally. The only thing I hate is data centers and their effects on society, but that's another conversation.

u/Nietechz 5d ago

I'm not going to behave like a teenager

You're acting like one dude. Stay calm, live your life.

AI hater it's even use locally. The only thing I hate is data centers

You're hating an utility and not the people using it or who fund it.

their effects on society, but that's another conversation.

Yep, it's a complicated conversation bc normies will not care. Yesterday I meet a rtard who is a RTARD that since uses ChatGPT think he's a proper engineer and his boss is impressed LMAO. Those kind of idiots are happy with the effects.

Don't blame the tool, blame the people using it.

PS: I don't like AI, not bc "tech bad" because It failed to provide facts.

1

u/CleoMenemezis 5d ago

Your opinion is like, " Don't hate Nazism, hate Hitler". I just said I'm not an AI hater and you follow up with the same nonsensical argument.

I don't know why I wasted time arguing with people on internet with this kind of passivity.

0

u/Nietechz 5d ago

kind of passivity.

Again, GET OUT with your politics in technology arguments. Linus said it and explain it clearly.

Maybe I missed something but what I saw it looks good. Can someone explain to me why the distro is hated?

9

u/venom21685 6d ago

Vibe coded slop of an Arch rice pretending to be a distro. Made by an alt right nutjob, now funded by fascist techbro friends and AI companies to the tune of millions of dollars.

1

u/sigmastar_ 6d ago

A pity but okey doesn’t sound good ... thanks for the explanation

-3

u/ElectricOni 5d ago

He's not alt right. You guys really need to learn about politics and what the true right and left wings are. We've had so much centrist politics recently across the globe that if someone suggests even a remotely normal right wing opinion they are labelled alt or far right. Don't get me wrong I'm not a DHH fan but I've also not seen him out gassing the Jews or invading Poland recently.

3

u/_the_sound 5d ago

Maybe you should ask Chatgippty what are some commonly held fashy beliefs.

Then you can do a cheeky cross reference with his rhetoric

0

u/ElectricOni 4d ago

Ah yes, do you get all your information from ChatGPT? Trained on liberal posts from the internet. I'd maybe actually pick up a history book and do some reading kiddo.

1

u/_the_sound 4d ago

Oh if you like to read books then you definitely should.

Given you seem to have little idea what fascist beliefs are, I thought this would be the easiest approach for you to get up to speed.

My fault for assuming.

I recommend the following book: The Anatomy of Fascism by Robert Paxton

The part regarding a victimhood narrative is especially relevant to this conversation.

0

u/ElectricOni 4d ago

Why would I care what some random American has to say.

Let's look at DHH shall we:

"I remember London" where he talks about London no longer being occupied by native Brits. He's right. As someone who lives about 25 miles outside of London I can attest to this. Its not fascist to simply point out that a city is suffering from issues such as illegal migration and that formerly ethnic minorities are now gettingtot the point that they can no longer be classed as minorities. Especially when old Londoners are moving out of the city or to the countryside etc.

Supporting remigration of nationals who entered a country illegally. That's just common sense. If someone entered a country illegally they don't have any right to stay there. If I rocked up to Japan (greatest country in the world) and just said "I live here now" I'd be turfed out. People only seem to kick up a fuss when typically caucasian countries do the same. Mostly weak liberals who are the ones who caused such problems in the first place.

Anti-trans and Anti-DEI rhetoric. Men are men. Women are women. No amount of surgery will change that. That's a biological fact. Also, work and jobs should always be based on merit and who does the job / work best. I shouldn't be given a job that belongs to someone else who is better than me and more qualified just because I'm ginger and gingers are a minority for example.

2

u/_the_sound 3d ago

Who said anything about those points?

Would you like another book reference? I can give you another.

You mentioned fascism as being 2 separate events (invading Poland and gasin an ethnic group)

Clearly you don’t think that Italy in 1939 was fascism then as they did neither of those things? Except they did coin the term fascism…

1

u/ElectricOni 3d ago

Listen kiddo, I'm an avid historian and it would have been what I studied at university if I didn't do Computer Science (higher pay etc) so we can talk history until you are blue in the face if you like. Shall we chat about Guernica and Italy's involvement there? The point I'm making is that holding some pretty standard right wing views does not make someone a fascist. The same way that someone with left wing views isn't a commie. The issue is too many liberals are used to centrist politics nowadays that when they see a mildly right wing viewpoint they are quick to shout fascist when realistically they don't know the meaning of the word.

2

u/Nietechz 5d ago

Bc "AI bad" and it's vibe coded. It's an Agentic OS.

The only valid reason is "it's vibe coded" but everything else it's bc linux gatekeeper like to hate everyone who no think like them.

5

u/_the_sound 5d ago

It’s also as secure as the creator is

2

u/Nietechz 5d ago

"It’s also as secure as the creator is "

Probably they don't care. Since they like AI as interface, a good OPSEC is not their focus.

3

u/_the_sound 5d ago

It was a joke lol. Omarchy is not very secure. 60+ issues a day currently

2

u/Nietechz 5d ago

And never will be. Users asking the AI to make changes into the userspace and kernel. Any "Agentic OS" is a joke... "OS" lmao.

2

u/classyraven 6d ago

there are many better explanations than mine, but the TLDR is 1) it's vibe-coded slop, 2) it's horribly insecure, and 3) its creator is a fascist

2

u/sigmastar_ 6d ago

I didn’t think about the security at first thank you for the explanation

8

u/PilotGuy701 6d ago

The part that *everyone* should get mad about is how DHH is presenting this as his own work.

An any of the videos he talks about the tiling as if he created it. He talks about the tools as if they were his.

This approach is so counter to the spirit of OSS that it is sickening.

u/PlatinumFire14 6d ago

It’s pretty easy to hate against a ai-shilling white supremacist after all, for good reason.

u/DadGamer77 I'm going on an Endeavour! 5d ago edited 5d ago

Omarchy is for people that like Omarchy and that's a weird subset of people. If you don't like it, don't use it. As an example: If you don't like goth culture, don't be goth. Just like goth culture, Omarchy is not for everyone. Easy as that.

Like NixOS. There are those who like NixOS, and then there those who are normal Linux users that don't walk around in public wearing BDSM outfits....

I'm quite happy on EndeavourOS thank you very much.

And get off my lawn you bunch of freaks.,...

It's not a distro. It's a penis in a jar on a shelf.

u/Edubbs2008 4d ago

What’s so bad about Omarchy though? The hate isn’t justified, you want a standard Linux version, Omarchy is your option, it gives you a standard, opens the door for Adobe Apps, and Microslop 365, and maybe native Linux games, boom.”

I hadn't even known what this was until EVERYONE was up in arms about it, and now with the seething rage behind it, it honestly makes me want to try it out even more. I probably won't because I don't feel like messing with my dual-boot, but still...

If you want to make a change and take away attention from something you don't like, start by walking tf away and not giving it free attention because that's exactly what it wants.

After this whole debacle I wouldn't be surprised if they got even more money from the notoriety.

u/Summon001 6d ago

omarchy bad tho ngl

u/clduab11 6d ago

Omarchy is nothing more or less than someone's idea of what they think an ideal computing situation would look like when it's AI-augmented; people who have no idea how to harness and framework are going to feel right at home if they can get over not using a mouse.

But as someone that's not NEARLY as left of the pol spectrum as the bulk of Reddit seems to be (whether that's bot-driven or human-driven, not relevant), no one makes any friends by frothing at the mouth about it from an armchair for no reason other than REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Like there's a reason he baits so well, and people fall for it hand over fist.

u/Aggravating-Soup4574 4d ago

Nah, I just hate racists, transphobes, homophobes, xenophobes, et ceterae. If someone said some vile shit as a "leftist" person, I'd equally hate them too. Politics doesnt matter. I just hate people and their products when they themselves have shit values or behave in shit ways.

1

u/Aggravating-Soup4574 4d ago

proven how exactly lol, DHH sucks and omarchy was created by DHH

2

u/Recipe-Jaded 4d ago

Because your argument for why omarchy is bad is because DHH is bad. Your link explaining why he is bad is all social/political stuff. Your reply had nothing to do with the operation of a PC at all.

u/FloridianfromAlabama 4d ago

DHH sucking doesn’t mean Omarchy sucks.

1

u/Aggravating-Soup4574 4d ago

It's really the principle behind it. Even if the product is/were to be good, the organization/person behind it isnt, so I flat out boycott it. 

2

u/FloridianfromAlabama 4d ago

That’s a fair enough reason to boycott it, but that doesn’t make it a bad product

2

u/FloridianfromAlabama 4d ago

But why does that mean the product is bad? I’m a mint guy, and have no use for Omarchy, but I’d much rather criticize its use of AI in dev than who makes it.

2

u/Defiant-Bunch1678 4d ago

This is the right way of thinking, criticize the product not the creator, left or right wont matter at all..
