DHH, known for Ruby on Rails, promotes Omarchy as an opinionated Linux environment for developers and local AI. A boycott site has listed Omarchy and numerous tech companies and executives as targets, claiming they fund far-right open source efforts. DHH posted about the site, calling the accusations clumsy and comical projection of political goals onto a non-political project. He also announced the formation of Omarchy M to support Apple M-series machines. Visible replies include developers pledging to switch from Mac and others questioning the project's novelty as mere Arch Linux tweaks.

Critics link the Linux distro to far-right causes while DHH denies any political intent.

Christian Lempa@ChristianLempaI’m bored of people praising Omarchy as the future of Linux... The problem isn’t that people are having fun with an opinionated Arch setup. Do that if you want. But Omarchy is not a new way computers work. It’s Arch, a tiling compositor, and someone else’s defaults with a…
0xSero@0xSeroIf you had the opportunity to be a pioneer would you? I’m going all in on Omarchy and dumping Mac now. I’ve spoken to many intelligent people and the suspicion and doubt only gives me more conviction. The OS for local AI. All in.
The Lunduke Journal@LundukeJournalYeesh. The Leftist Activists of Open Source are out in force to attack @OmarchyLinux and @DHH. Here’s two examples from leaders in the Linux world (and employees of Linux-y companies): System76’s Principal Engineer (maintainer of Pop!_OS), is boosting statements calling…
DHH@dhhYikes, the clowns even got inside System76? Man. Clowns under every cover in this Linux bazaar! But I will agree with them on one thing: I'm very serious about carving out a spot within Linux that isn't controlled by or subject to their circus.
DHH@dhhWe've officially incorporated Omarchy M: The team bringing Omarchy to Apple M chips and vintage machines alike. Awesome progress already!
DHH@dhhOh noes!! The clowns have made a little website that rants left and right about the evils of "fashware" and capitalism and all the many (MANY!) people you have to boycot. And lots of non-Omarchy ones thrown in for good measure 🤣

jdx@jdxcode@ChristianLempa > It’s Arch, a tiling compositor, and someone else’s defaults with a famous name on the ISO. New shiny thing. Same story as always. Describing Omarchy without mentioning the word "agent" is a straw-man.
Daniel Collin@daniel_collin@ChristianLempa > A desktop OS does not make you more productive. Disagree. If you have the workflow optimized (such as keybindings etc for the tools use) instead of manually clicking icons on a desktop you can stay in in the flow and that does make you more productive.
Thomas Andreas Ferdinand@Thaf_CologneDu reagierst hier wie ein typisch deutscher Linuxer, der Angst hat, seine Deutungshoheit, sein selbstdefiniertes Alleinstellungsmerkmal an Jene zu verlieren, die durch Omarchy einen wesentlich einfacheren Einstieg in die Linuxwelt haben werden. Deine Aufgabe wäre also eher, Dir…
Nyasha Dennis@chirorojr@ChristianLempa Why are you so bothered about what makes other people happy? If it doesn't make you more productive cool. If you feel it's just dotfiles cool. We don't care. We love Omarchy. It's great. It's fun.
Umbral Wolf@UmbralW0lf@ChristianLempa Yea I run what is very close to omarchy but as my own custom build - except with ni gtk installed and the few gtk apps I need stuck in flatpak prison, but I love omarchy creating a space for cultural conservatives in a sub-culture that’s been invaded by Marxist…
