Not really compatible on all fronts, it's very capable especially with tool calling, workflows, logic and its base coding ability, but it's only a 27b model so it does not have anywhere near the level of knowledge baked in as larger models. This does not mean that it's not a good or useful model - it is on both accounts and very efficient, but it's not similar to a large model generally speaking.
I don't think it's aimed at them. I think it's mostly aimed at windows and mac users who are computer enthusiasts but never really made the jump to Linux as a desktop daily driver. Just supposed to be a cool on-ramp - basically mint but different and with some marketing behind it?
Then why chose a distro that is being maintained by one person. I would NEVER recommend a Windows/Mac and first time Linux user to switch to such a distro. Not just his political views no quite practical implications are key here: what if this guy has a heart-attack? The distro will be abandoned. What if his development PC gets compromised? The distro is fried in both cases. The more developers are on the team holding the credentials and responsibilities the better, the safer a distro is. Omarchy is nothing more than an experimental distro and shouldn't be used productively or as your main OS. Simply because it's run by one guy, one single point of failure.
It's the same reason why you mustn't recommend CachyOS to newcomers either, they're still just two people running the show, although they're aware of the risks that comes with it and trying to expand their core team.
I wasn't making a value judgement on who should respond to the offer, just commenting on who the offer was probably aimed at. Though I do think the sudden spike in investment and the little foundation around it now means probably more than "just one guy".
you can get 5 to 10 times more GB/$ with magnetic drives. The best solution is something that is smart enough to stream linear reads like movies from disk but cache data with random IO patterns on flash.
I would love to have more vendor supporting GrapheneOS. I doubt that it will happen though as vendors would prefer to have control over the experience.
