Yeah... DHH is one of the last people's opinions I'll listen to lol
Hope people who use omarchy are happy, it really feels like an ADHD project he'll burn out on but we'll see. Then again, I've already been using linux for ever, so he has nothing to sell me honestly. A vast majority of devs use VS Code. Why would they switch to vim? Anyone who already has a preferred non-vim editor... why would they use omarchy? They'll hate it and just say linux sucks because it requires a weird vim install.
And plus, his announcement video on stage basically said the whole point of Omarchy is so he can make sure his expensive employees aren't killing his profit margins by wasting precious wealth generation time setting up their laptops to develop rails apps. Don't really care for that being the whole purpose of a distro.
I didn’t watch the video, that last part there is disgustingly on brand for him.
