And then I just go like okay, well

For whatever reason let me do the nerdy thing for a while.

I'll build Umachi.

And maybe it'll just be for me, because I mean it seems like there's about five people who like tiling window managers.

That's not true.

But as a percentage of total computer users, it's a tiny, tiny minuscule part.

And then I go like, well, this is amazing.

Totally different, but amazing.

I put that out.

Instantly, Umachi had far greater traction than Amakoub ever did because it was not the same.

Because it was totally different and it presented a different vision for what a computer could be and how it could feel like.

And that attracts people.

We're now getting sort of the exponential of that.

As I said, a lot of people in the Lynx community are at best skeptical, at worst hostile to AI and to agents.

Umachi is the first distribution, at least that I've seen on on uh scale that matters, that just goes like nope.

We're really into it.

I mean, you can still use a machine.

You don't have to use an agent.

If you dismiss that first uh notification to set up a default agent, you're not gonna get any of the stuff we talked about.

You're not gonna get the crash watcher, you're not gonna get any of this stuff, you're not gonna get you can you can hand chisel all your plugins.
