So preface, I am extremely OOTL with the distros. I have my Fedora box for work and its been running just fine for 5 years now. Before that i am an Arch btw user with i3 config riced to the max. I wanted to get actual work done so i stuck with Fedora and have not attempted any other distros.
Anyway, this Omarchy seems like a big deal? Idk everywhere i search, people are saying stuff like it is the best thing for Linux. Recently, there was news that Omarchy actually got funded for like $8 million?? The money comes from some big names too: Dell, DHH, Stripe, Jack Dorsey…etc. The dev who is working on Hyprland also indirectly benefits from this funding.
Is this going to become a serious corporate backed distro? We have Redhat for that right? Or is this just hype
Why is this being downvoted? This is just a naive and curious post; you guys really shouldn’t fall into the Reddit habit of downvoting things that you simply don’t like to read, instead of doing so when things are hateful, factually incorrect, or bad advice.
Honestly, shit like this is why I set up my own lemmy instance where down votes are disabled. It’s built in configuration option, but very, very few instances have it set.
In practice it works pretty well. Popular stuff rises faster than unpopular stuff, but people don’t get shit on for valid but unpopular opinions. It also means you can’t down vote yourself, but the counter to that is to just up vote other things. So much less toxicity and more positivity - I can really recommend it.
Thank you for this! I didn’t realise this existed! I will activate it on my instance 👍
Small instances are best. I just wish the big instances didn’t have most of the communities.
Indeed – downvotes has no purpose other than self-validation needs.
Gotta remember that a lot of Lemmy users are here because they’ve been banned from everywhere else. All the big Lemmy instances are highly moderation averse but I still report dipshits when I see them.
Im here because reddit is cancerous and I cant use RIF anymore. Im not banned.
