POX added Omarchy as alternative to Shadowfetch LinuxDaily driving it now for a couple of months on my main machine and it works great (even with Nvidia GPU). Some learning curve but hyprland is just amazing and the preconfigured setup by DHH is quite ergonomic and enables a soft start without too much frustration.
