Omarchy is ready! Hyprland + Arch have never been so easy. Everything comes preconfigured, preinstalled, and with six beautiful themes in the box. This is the smoothest, most pleasant operating system I've ever had under my fingers.

To move out of S3 and onto our own Pure Storage, @bitsweat built a little app called Nostos to manage the transition. We've been using S3 in some form for over 15 years, so there were a lot of old buckets in the attic to inspect! But well worth the effort to save nearly $1m/year.

We now have about a thousand people on the #omarchy channel helping each other, inspiring each other, and sharing this new adventure together. Great energy!.
Want to run Omarchy? Already running it? Want to help make it better? Come join the new Omarchy channel on Discord:

And it demonstrates the power and resilience of Linux that there's always an alternative, if you don't like the direction that your current distro is taking. No such luxury if you don't like the direction Microsoft takes for Windows or Apple with the Mac!.

Great analysis of the momentum that's building around Arch and Hyprland. It is significant that neither of these two projects have enterprisey corporate overlords. I think it's incredibly healthy that we get a counterweight to the IBMs of the Linux world.
Arch & Hyprland - The Future of Linux?. PewDiePie, Primeagen, DHH, & Valve (Steam). The momentum behind Arch Linux (and Hyprland) is significant.

That F1 movie was way better than it had any right to be. Amazing cinematography, great earnest story, and credible acting. Maybe Apple should just retire from the tech business and become a full-time movie producer!.

There's a new class-action lawsuit filed against Apple by some developers, including Proton. Given Epic's success in the same district, I think Apple would be right to be worried. The bill for years of abuse is finally coming due in a big way.

Another reason to be bullish about Arch: @valvesoftware didn't just base SteamOS and the Steam Deck on it, they're actively investing in the infrastructure of the project too. We have a lot to thank Gabe Newell for in the Linux world!

No joke, my favorite Apple products at this point are their monitors! The new ProArt 27" 5K looks like an awesome bargain at half the price of the Studio Display, but there's just something about that clean display and aluminum build.
Just got Arch + Hyprland + Omarchy running on my Beelink SER8, fully working with the Apple Studio Display. Insanely cool setup! Took only 20 minutes thanks to @dhh’s Omarchy mix! Excited to use this as my daily driver and dive deeper into Arch and Hyprland.

I'm making so many new friends on this Linux journey! Who said nerds are anti-social? Get them talking about a shared passion, and you'll find the most generous, kind, and caring people.

Just learned that you can use Google Messages to receive/send SMS/RCS on Linux via their web app! This is great for old-school 2FA codes etc. And something lots of folks mentioned not wanting to give up from Messages.

I'm working on a Mac-to-Linux ecosystem exodus guide. Would love to get recommendations from folks on what they've done to get out of the Apple garden, so we can include the best ideas.

Gotta love Linux. Omarchy running on the Steam Deck! We owe @valvesoftware a huge debt of gratitude for pushing Linux gaming to the next level with Proton. And the Steam Deck is already Arch underneath! Full circle!.
Steam deck with @dhh’s #omarchy running #algokit, #lazylora, #lazydocker and #lazygit 🙌 . Other than hiccups with post installing some valve drivers - it’s running incredibly snappy 🚀

We already have about 500 people gathering in the Omarchy Discord channel sharing their setups, helping people out, and chiming in on the future direction. Love when a community forms this fast. Real frontier spirit!

Have I told you how much I love @Tailscale? Being able to access my MS-A2 Proxmox server for Omacom testing over their mesh VPN is freaking awesome. Nothing exposed to the open internet. Dead easy to set up. Free for personal. Highly recommended!

So clean! Also, I have a habit of underestimating the technical savvy of designers. Traces right back to the days where I thought using version control would be too hard for @jasonfried 😂. Clearly Omarchy isn't just for developers.
@dhh I'm a designer using macs for work in the past 14y. no linux experience. decided to jump straight into omarchy and i'm lovin it. already made a small theme for myself, some binds using grim/slurppy/satty to emulate cleanshot, replaced dropbox with owncloud on waybar, etc.
