    […] It uses neovim as it’s default editor. note the VIM part. so logically to navigate a TILING WINDOW MANAGER whose default editor is neoVIM you’d use VIM style navigation right? nope not on omarchy. […]

    This is one of the things - like setting super + F11 for fullscreen - that I thought was such poor design that let me immediately know that everything else was going to be shit. The navigations and tiling are the core of functionality, so if the core is bad then the shell must be bad as well. Not to mention that instead of using Hyprland’s Lua configuration to extend actions like closing all windows in the current workspace they use bash scripts calling hyprctl and jq.

    Also, marketing it like a beginner friendly distro while shipping Hyprland with Neovim is just imbecile behaviour. Finally what really pissed me off is how little to no acknowledgement they give to the tools they are using and pretending they did all the hard work.

    Real piece of shit "distribution".

      yeah the script thing is just hilarious to me. it shows that no one actually touched any code building this thing because LLMs are NOTORIOUS for insisting on using scripts.

      So many open exploits with this “distro” and don’t get me started on the “plugin store”.
