Nov 20 "Linux has surpassed 5% desktop market share in the US (5.03% in June 2025)... analysts eye 7% by 2027." Analysts are such timid creatures. I'm eyeing at least double that. Make no small plans; they have no magic to stir men's blood! https://t.co/XEzsA2T9OS 1.7k 111 86 70.6k 257 .
Nov 20 You can like remote work and still recognize that Zoom fucking sucks when it comes to large gatherings. Anything that requires you to scroll pages of people is an indignity. But meeting up with 50 colleagues in person is a peak work experience. https://t.co/1F8DnCCIgZ 855 26 38 95.3k 268 .

Nov 12 The 2026 racing schedule is starting with a pre-season test for @Rolex24Hours this weekend. @tobi and I will be racing for Shopify x @TDSRacing_live this year together with Beche and Milesi. Great team, great lineup, great car! https://t.co/7HmeZwppBE 358 9 18 43.2k 251 .
Nov 10 What a gorgeous machine. Back when computers weren't afraid of showing some color. Red escape, blue return, green shifts. Love it. 794 26 62 64.8k 130 .
Nov 10 Computers should be fun, colorful, different, and working on them with others inside a big tent is an absolute delight. So whatever we have to do to route around the nonsense to get us there, let's do that. 946 51 36 56.5k 206 .
Nov 09 Watching Switch and Click get the most out of her new 49" ultrawide workstation with Omarchy, and discovering that a setup built on Arch and Hyprland needn't be intimidating, is just the best. Lower the barriers, let more people join the party! 🀘 https://t.co/cCAkyTWZRi 469 13 16 95.6k 270 .
Nov 09 Love seeing all these new beautiful workstations that Omarchy users are sharing on the Discord 😍 https://t.co/8vATL6aRx6 872 20 28 47.4k 120 .
Nov 07 It's the tech equivalent of bemoaning an indie band for "selling out" if they dare produce a hit that lets them play stadiums. Defining your identity around using Linux BECAUSE it's not mainstream is the same sort of hipster pathology. 692 12 16 35.6k 235 .
Nov 07 You can call Omarchy a distro, a remix, or a dotfiles dump for all I care. Whatever your fragile nerd ego needs if you must demean newcomers who didn't honor your silly rites and rituals. I'm just going to keep pushing Linux to a new audience by shipping a great system. 2.7k 49 77 75.4k 270 .
Nov 07 This level of petty nerdery relies on the misconception that your precious terminology has any meaning to outsiders. As if it's obvious that they have any interest in climbing your little status hierarchy by playing your silly games. I don't. 1.7k 19 16 71.8k 242 .

Nov 04 I've seen a million "Omarchy brought my vintage Mac back to life post", which all perfectly illustrate that making it EASY to get going with such a project was the pivotal point.

Oct 28 Europeans can comfort themselves in knowing that this is a typical evolution of history: Through the ages, great empires would rise, gain riches and prestige, rule like kings for a while, then quickly squander it all once the original vigor and talent that built it all died/left. 930 20 28 36.9k 280 .

Oct 22 You love to see it! The great conceit of the perpetually outraged is that everyone else wants to soak in their sad political bullshit all the time too. Most people in tech do not! They just want to talk about computers with fellow nerds without all the nonsense. 648 28 18 64.7k 262 .

Oct 20 We're saving well over two million dollars per year on this cloud exit. We got much faster gear (local nvme storage vs network mounts is a game changer!). We own all our hardware. And when things go down, we can actually do something about it ourselves. https://t.co/KdAkmm13tw 1.1k 61 21 63.3k 277 .
Oct 20 I just joined Greg's new Ruby Discord. Great to see folks stepping up to provide alternatives to route around nonsense πŸ‘Œ 504 25 13 75.8k 120 .
Oct 20 Note: The argument is not that leaving cloud will mean you're never going to have downtime. All computer systems have problems. But the internet was designed so that these issues would be isolated, not all at once. Also, it's perfectly possible to have great uptime w/o cloud. https://t.co/AvTwjT1nkp 686 31 29 53.1k 300 .
Oct 20 It's not just possible to get out of the cloud, and away from this centralized liability, but for many companies also extraordinarily profitable to do so. https://t.co/KdAkmm13tw 503 24 4 56k 179 .

Oct 19 The new tiling groups are fantastic. Especially on a small display. You can give every app tabs and easily fit a lot more on each workspace. Super + G to start a group, Super + Alt + Arrows to move windows into it, Super + Alt + G to move a window out. https://t.co/bAWEMrMAuw 651 22 31 67k 276 .

Oct 18 Kamal 2.8 will finally give us a local registry option for simple deploys. This means you won't need a Docker Hub or GHCR setup just to see your app in production. Will get this snuck into Rails 8.1 before we ship final! https://t.co/gPHj8cT8gk 668 43 34 43.5k 244 .
Oct 18 Fleet MDM just added explicit support for Arch and Omarchy. This seems like a great option if your organization is leaving the Mac and needs a Kandji replacement. https://t.co/Fw6bywEzuU https://t.co/ndyq8UzYIv 793 38 17 75.5k 210 .

Oct 16 @sudobunni You can of course stick to the old hotkeys for copy/paste as well. But this will make it much easier for Mac users to come over. And that's what this Omarchy party is all about: Getting folks from Windows and Mac a great path onto the Linux highway of joy πŸ˜„ 379 3 17 32.2k 268 .
