Year of the Linux Laptop: Omarchy on XPS

After more than a decade with Apple (and Windows before that), I’ve been using Linux with Omarchy exclusively for the past few months and have been very happy with it. Can’t imagine going back to Mac or Windows at this point.

I had never really used Linux as a daily driver (aside from sysadmin stuff on remote servers), but Omarchy setup took less than 10 minutes and getting comfortable took just a few hours. Since switching, I’ve seen clear productivity boost, and the competency gained in Linux, Vim, etc. and overall performance made it totally worth it.

I’m running it on a cheap ThinkPad for all my daily development work and it likely saved me over $4000 since I was planning to buy a new MacBook Pro before trying this. Haven’t touched my old MacBook in quite some time.

Just wanted to share my experience with Omarchy, definitely worth trying if you're on the fence.

I actually impressed how DHH makes the things work. I switched to Omarchy from Mac and it's not perfect but I feel that I like it. Probably would get an XPS.

Now on x7950x/4080 - gaming works almost perfectly. 99% of the games "just work" including AAA tiles.
