I don’t think Omarchy is going to make Linux better so much as that they identified that Linux on the desktop has reached a tipping point and now is the time to capitalize on it. That’s the DHH playbook and why would it be any different this time?

One thing I will give them is that the total lack of leadership and project management in open source software is at the same time a liability as it is its strength. That kind of duality creates these kind of opportunities for actors not willing to play by the unspoken rules.
