As a long-time Linux full time user, I begrudgingly switched to a mac for company reasons around a decade ago. I've lost a little bit of light in my life ever since, and was constantly fighting macOS to just let me work the way I want to.

I've switched back full time to Omarchy, and couldn't be happier. I'll likely eventually land back on NixOS with hyprland and my custom configs, but for now, Omarchy is wonderful.

DHH is just the salesman a Linux distro like this needs, and the combination of smart decisions (most menu'd commands just call out to shell scripts behind the scenes) and text-based config make Omarchy a techie's dream.

Add something like claude code in your ~/.config directory and you have almost instant and infinite ability to customize.

It's so much fun.

For any former i3 users, I've found https://github.com/outfoxxed/hy3 to be a very acceptable replacement.
