OMARCHY — Beautiful, Modern & Opinionated Linux
Beautiful, Modern & Opinionated Linux by DHH.
Role: Core Team (announced Aug 2026)

When I'm not at Oodle, I'm here.
An omakase distribution based on Arch Linux and the tiling window manager Hyprland. It ships with everything a modern software developer needs to be productive immediately — from Neovim to Spotify, Chromium to Obsidian, and Ghostty to LibreOffice.
This isn't just a grab bag of preinstalled packages. It's a complete system designed with both aesthetics and productivity in mind.
The best damn distro around!
What I Work On:
Installation, packaging, hardware support, gaming, theming, CLI tooling, and now Quattro. I helped drive the move to Quickshell, the plugin system, and a lot of the infrastructure underneath — including the package repository we built after one too many 3am emergency AUR outages. DHH's core team announcement has the longer version.
The Numbers:
100,000 downloads in a single week — nearly a petabyte moved.
The Omacom Foundation — $10 million from ten founding patrons.
Over 1,000 community plugins submitted in a week.
Omarchy's changelog runs on Herald.
