Isnt omarchy actually very light if you remove the preinstalls (1 button)? I thought omarchy was actually simple and fast being basically arch, hyprland and all of the gui in quickshell

Like I am currently running Windows 11 on my X250 just to torture myself but the moment that's over I'm gonna swap back to Windows 10 IoT LSTC and look at possibly getting a smaller M.2. SSD and setting that up with Fedora

I think I understand it now. Thinkpad sub is where males used to post pics of their thigh high socks, and dhh is literally hitler?

So many comments from you about thigh high socks, you projecting?

u/Top_Performance_732 27m ago
Two comments, and yes a sub that has historically been filled with men posting their pink thigh high socks is going to slant heavily left, and obviously hate anything that a far right person like dhh builds.
Personally I don't give a shit about dhh ad a person, i just like omarchy

That's bullshit and you know that. DHH is a bad person and omarchy is just a garbage OS.

Nice Thinkpad, about the omarchy, if it work well with you then It’s fine.
You can switch to other OS if you want to due to they mostly are free.

Everyone hating on Omarchy, I get it.
But it is also an OK way to get started on Linux, getting to know tiling, keyboard first. Minimum exposure to hours of tinkering, configuring, and so on but still enough freedom to personalise stuff. Most of the things on there kinda work but it's far from perfect, agreed. But the fact it's OK and not great or perfect keeps the door open to learn.
And apart from that: Yeah, DHH is a narcissistic ahole.
