The whole point of Omarchy is for people who want to use Arch Linux but have it configured the way DHH does.

So I think it's a little different. Anybody using an opinionated respin should understand what they're getting.

The Omarchy team admitted it was a mistake and corrected it quickly.

It’s strange that so many people are trying to call this security error intentional.

Then they don't actually want to use Arch Linux.

The Arch Linux way is to read the excellent wiki documentation, learn about all the choices available, and then make all of those choices so the system is configured the user's way instead of some celebrity's way.

What exactly is special about rolling a custom arch in this instance? Like, why does this get so much attention? Do web developers really care about what DHH does that much?

Like, I get it if thats the case. Say, if Chris Lattner or Andrej Karpathy rolled some ML GPU programming distro I'd probably care about it and try and see if it made me more productive.
