I mean, everyone can assemble an FTP server, why start Dropbox, right?

Sounds like this app is perfect for you.

I think this is a great idea, overall. It’s not perfect for me, because I’m not using macOS for a very long time now. Good luck to a random stranger figuring out how to use my highly custom SwayWM system.

You could just buy a Yubikey.

Or you could just buy a Yubikey

Got mine for circa $7 a few years back. Absolutely best tiny computer I ever had. It sips power, and is rock stable for me. Only one issue: it doesn’t reboot for some reason, it shutdowns. I can tolerate that for $7. Apart from that, I’m very happy with that tiny beast. Got three of them. And at that price, I’d buy 10 more and give them for free for friends, already setup with some services. I just hope they’d go really cheap at some point, once the bubble bursts or something.


Same here.


I’m blocked too. Wasn’t sure what you are talking about, but found the blog in the profile. I’m from my iPhone. I wonder which country they do not block.


The comment you replied to is ‘how to say you don’t know or understand what Omarchy is, without saying it’

In other words, they lost me there too.


I know what Omarchy is. I have it running in a VM right now.

I have yet to see any OS developer go all-in on AI and agentic coding in the same way. Maybe Microsoft. But my point was about new operating systems, with new ideas.


Have you tried Mac Ports?


I noticed that too, but for me there’s no point in basic model. As usually used Pros are better at their value at the same price point. Perhaps they decided to focus on premium tier, while everyone else would manage somehow. Or they would introduce regular models quietly later.


My bet is that is heavily vibe coded abandonware.

I’m super excited about any open source OS there is, but in all honesty, I see very little value for a desktop system like that. Linux is plenty good and apps ecosystem is slowly coming into a really great state. I’d love to see FreeBSD being there too, and basically you need nothing different from that.


Just to clarify, did you mean ‘exciting’ by

> Is Darwin really all the exiting?

I’ve tried to reread your question, and couldn’t get the sense, before I thought maybe that’s an autocorrection / misprint.


I'm pretty sure it's "Is Darwin really all that exciting?"


And mine is as fast as I need, with Sway as my main DE. (With Arch Linux, but I bet Fedora wouldn’t be any worse.) The only reason to switch to M{1,2,3} is battery life. So, as soon as the external Thunderbolt display is going to work, I think I’m making the switch.
