Thoughts on #Omarchy before getting rid of it and going #CachyOS + #Niri

1. Installer is nice, has an RPG-like feel to it and while being keyboard base, it's pretty intuitive and easy to use
2. Predefined themes look really good
3. It is too bloated for my liking, I understand the purpose but prefer the minimal setup approach, specially regarding installed apps
4. DHH

Taking it as learning experience, seeing it is a script, I am now curious about making my own to fit my needs.

@hyuchia IMHO the issue with these kinds of configs is that they are not made to be understood but they polished to be pseudo distribution but without any form of packaging quality that you would expect from distribution in Fedora/openSUSE or even Arches on packages, mentioning RPM based distributions first here since they require a higher level of polishing usually for enterprise usage.
If you want a custom config I recommend something that is designed to be understood, start small.

The first custom config was my #Emacs config that started as a few lines of lisp copied from the internet.
It grew as I got better up to a point where it required reworking to stay readable.
But at that point I got far enough to be able to redo it.
A thing I would like to have earlier if I knew is to use something like #yadm to manage my configuration.
