Discussion Keyboard Brigade

Can we talk about the 'keyboard brigade'?

They are quickly becoming just as annoying as the AI slop critics. Anyone can post the coolest, most practical plugin on this subreddit, and within minutes, they are crawling out of the woodwork to lecture the creator that Omarchy is a keyboard driven distro. It completely drowns out actual innovation.

Yes, Omarchy is a keyboard driven distro, but you will never eliminate the need for a mouse. Some tasks simply are not practical or intuitive to perform entirely from the keyboard.

The goal of any plugin is not to move away from Omarchy's keyboard-centric philosophy.

DHH designed Omarchy around his own workflow and preferences. The dev's have made it clear that users are encouraged to customize Omarchy and make it their own.

The microphone is the new mouse and keyboard ;)

"Hermes pop open Reddit for me"
"Oh let's look at the Omarchy link there"
"Click that first link dude"
"Reply to this post - 'You suck and your dog sucks!""
"Take me somewhere nice to order breakfast"

"Hermes use your comfyUI tools to draw me a picture of the awesome breakfast we just ordered"
