Awesome to see Omarchy getting more visibility! Fireship’s vid spreading the Linux desktop to 500k+ viewers is huge!

I don't use this distro myself, but I still cheer for anything that helps motivate Windows users to make the switch.

Exactly. I don't use Omarchy, but I think it is good someone did a polished distro for a specific use case, and some web dev Windows users will surely find it more appealing than a generic distro where they need to figure out a lot of stuff from scratch.

Why would a Windows favor hyprland as their first ever linux compositor over a windows like one like KDE? When a bug happens, who do they complain to? DHH? Or will they just abandon linux and call it shit?
