> Omarchy 3.0 was released just last week with faster installation and increased Macbook compatibility, so if you’ve been Linux-curious for a while now, we encourage you to try it out!

"If you're curious about trying Linux, why not install this obscure mouseless tiling TUI distro to guarantee you'll never attempt to use Linux again!"

Is people more open to try Linux if it's very different from Mac or Windows? Was the problem with other Desktop Environments that they work too similarly to them?

I use the mouse in Omarchy all the time.

And I've used Macs since 2008 (and it's still my main work computer)

Not mouseless or obscure but it definitely is a distro

Granted, it does have a TUI focus

311th is plenty obscure in my book.

Isn't their ranking based on how many hits their respective pages get? Omarchy hype is happening on social media for the most part.

Omarchy just got added to Distro watch. Ranking currently #10 on the last 7 days.

I, too, only look at position and not velocity or acceleration.

Instead why not choose one of the 10000 Windows ui clones
