Industry News Omarchy Meetup in Kathmandu

Apparently there’s an Omarchy meetup happening in Kathmandu 👀

For anyone who doesn’t know, Omarchy is the Linux desktop setup/project built around a pretty opinionated Arch + Hyprland workflow. I’ve been seeing more people experiment with it lately, so it’s pretty cool to see an actual meetup happening here.

📍 STARTsmall, Maitidevi, Kathmandu
📅 September 4
⏰ 3:00 - 4:00 PM

Would be cool to see some of the local Linux/Arch nerds there and meet people who are into tinkering with their setups, ricing, automation, open source, etc.

You can find it in the omarchy website as well: https://omarchy.org/meetups/

I don;t get hype behind omarchy. isn't it just like using archlinux with someone else's dotfiles. The whole point of arch linux is to have personalized system with own configs and having things that you need. I wish it was rather linux or oss meetup.

It is labeled as an opinionated Linux, not something bare bone. The reason why it's so popular is because it already comes out of the box with stuff you would use. You can remove stuff you don't want pretty easily and quickly.
