Really appreciate this response! Glad to hear you are running Arch and liking it.

I've been a long-time Apple user (and long-time user of Linux for work + part-time for personal), but have been trying out Arch and hyprland on my decade+ old ThinkPad and have been surprised at how enjoyable the experience is. I'm thinking it might just be the tipping point for leaving Apple.

I just did! Warmly encouraging you to try it out! Managed to put Omarchy on an external ssd on my old macbookpro 2019; rarely booting in macos now. Long time i haven’t enjoyed using a computer SO MUCH!
