Omarchy should not matter. But sadly it does. As a power grab. If you don’t know what Omarchy is here’s the short summary. David Heinemeier Hansson, creator of RubyOnRails, owner of a software business and millionaire, decided a few months ago to go all in on Linux and – because that’s just his MO – […]

The Pulse: RoR creator sparks new “death of coding by hand” debate
37signals – the creator of Ruby on Rails (RoR) – moves over to agents generating nearly all its code. Also: Amazon and Meta struggle to hire engineers, code reviews will probably also go away and more

Because $18 million dollars isn't enough for some people, I have *more* people and organisations of note to list as paying Omarchy patrons (there are over hundreds in total): - Axel Fontaine is the creator of Flyway, the widely used database migration tool he sold to Redgate in 2019. He's also submitted code to the Omarchy repo, both a funder and a hands-on contributor. - Marc Köhlbrugge is the founder of WIP and BetaList, fixtures of the indie-hacker/bootstrapper scene that Omarchy's ricing bullshit aesthetic is clearly courting. - ServiceStack is an established .NET web-services framework vendor, one of the patrons backing the project as a company rather than an individual. - Bertrand Janin is a longtime open-source developer (ex-Ramp, ex-Truveris) running his own small shop, Atelier Janin. - Pagecord, the blogging platform created by Olly. - Vincent Ritter, founder of Tinylytics and Scribbles, known for complaining about being offended by pronouns, being disappointed by more inclusive Apple emoji, disparaging "foreigners" who drive for Uber and play "foul rap music," and praising Elon Musk the day after he performed two Nazi salutes on camera. Manton Reece, of micro.blog, publicly defends him. - 9538-7874 Quebec inc. is one of at least a couple of numbered, unnamed Canadian corporations on the list. Bizarre shell companies with no public identity attached to them at all. Unsure about these. https://omarchy.org/patrons/
Open source to closed doors: RubyGems control fight erupts

My Journey from macOS to Arch Linux with Omarchy
After 15 years on macOS, I made the leap to Arch Linux using Omarchy. Here's what I discovered about the trade-offs, workflow changes, and why shorter battery life and fan noise haven't sent me back to my MacBook.

Next version of Omarchy will ship with a micro fork of Chromium that gives us live theme switching! Fantastic job by @hjanuschka to land this as omarchy-chromium-bin on the AUR. Open source is amazing 😍 pic.twitter.com/lniqUqQZGE— DHH (@dhh) August 14, 2025
Shopify, pulling strings at Ruby Central, forces Bundler and RubyGems takeover
