Omarchy OS Android Important note: This is just me using my creativity. It is nothing official or anything that DHH has started working on. I just feel a burning desire to learn how to build a layer on top of Android and how user interactions would work in such... show more

A demo as a launcher using the Android emulator

Prafull1 month ago

Text-heavy interface is probably not the best fit for smaller screens

Bjarne Øverli1 month ago

That is certainly true!

Bjarne Øverli1 month ago

Well, the Android emulator is installed.

Do it please, we need open source alternatives.

It doesn't feel like an android

Might be worth looking into using GrapheneOS as a base? Very secure, open-source (of course), and will have support for both Pixels and (soon) Motorola devices

Thought about this today and boom it’s reality. Omarchy OS on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 would be awesome!! 💯

this is so cool Bjarne!!

Most important has to be the UX. Completely different use cases, interaction scenarios, etc. Starting from fundamentals, good navigation, clarity and accessibility, and evolve into what features make sense and how is Omarchy Android different from the rest

excited to see where this goes

Now this is my kind of mobile OS!

This is a great opportunity for A2UI to form the core of the project. Here are some options: by @CopilotKit

this is an incredible concept - 100% would use this as my phone os.

It's becoming a reality

Amazing keep going!!

I always thought it would be cool to have a SOM like ring menu on a long-tap. I imagine one could swipe up/down for additional "menus" if there are too many options. Would love to see that vision become a reality!

A tablet version?

i think a simple getting-started approach is just work on a home launcher that provides the experience. gotta crawl before you walk.

I’m so here for it!

Why on top of Android? I would replace Android at all.

Thomas Stockschläder1 month ago

Really cool demo, but that just shows me that the key thing is a focus on the keyboard. The Minimal Phone 2's shortcuts are really interesting and could be worth exploring further

I was just thinking about this today but on top of a Nothing Phone.

If you use AI, you need to switch to Omarchy immediately It is an AI first, open source operating system by DHH and it has skyrocketed my productivity In this video I cover how to use it, how to install it, and why I'm having more fun using computers than I ever have before:

This right here is exactly what I felt when I tried switching my main phone from iPhone to Android last year. The apps on Android are so bad they don’t even feel like they’re made for your phone. Plus many apps on Android simply lack a lot of features compared to iOS. For example, on WhatsApp on iOS, I can quickly swipe left on a message in a group chat to see which members have received and/or read my message. On Android, it takes a long press and 2 additional taps to access the same info. This was such a deal breaker for me who’s in a lot of group chats.

Imagine a computer where you don’t need to learn 10 apps to get work done. You just tell it what you want, and it adapts to how you work. I tested Happycapy with a real use case and created an image and a video. No coding, no complex software. Do this: - Build automations that run on schedule - Deploy agent teams that work for you AI molds how you work, not the other way around. If you can use a computer, you can make anything happen. Start your first Automation and Agent teams today.

As a small VTuber, I've had to learn how to do a lot of things on my own, And one of those things is video editing! I still have a lot to learn, but I'm happy to see how much my editing has improved since I started last year This is what my editing files look like right now, nothing too fancy to be honest, but it get's the work done! :D

Just minted from my taxi during a break using OpenSea mobile. Crazy how smooth it felt. Being able to stay on top of mints while working hits different. This is a big win for me.

x402 is finally catching fire, but how do you actually build with it? In this video you'll learn how to build custom x402 agents in just 5 minutes. 🔥 The app is Open Source and gets you started with both a client and a merchant agent, everything you need to build your own agents. I show you how to extend it to sell EBooks for 1USDC.

The students’ love for him is genuine, and it clearly shows in their public interactions. How the Regional Minister has managed to build such a strong rapport with them in just a year is truly impressive. 📹: DeinaDaily

I don’t personally agree with some aspects of this video based on my own experience, but I thought it was useful to reflect on. I’ve found deep content in becoming a family man that nothing else has compared to. While I do strive to provide more for my family and remain present and nurturing, it is not out of a desire to seek freedom or anything else of that nature. Service to others beats service to self in how it feels 100% of the time, but it is also important that you do not pour from an empty cup. A balance must be struck. Something my mentor told me awhile back has stuck with me since. Depressed = Deep Rest. I definitely tried to maintain that permanent state of contentment with drugs in the past, it does not work. I absolutely agree with that. The body will always find homeostasis.

Palantir CEO Alex Karp says people think we’re in an AI bubble because a lot of AI just doesn’t work: “If you just buy LLMs off the shelf and try to do any of this, it won’t work.” “It’s not precise enough. You can’t do underwriting. You can’t do these things that are regulated.” “People have tried things that just can never work. You buy a LLM, put it on your stack, and wonder why it’s not working.” “What you’re going to see, especially in America, is people trying to do something like Ontology by hand.” “Once you build a software layer to orchestrate and manage the LLMs in a language your enterprise understands, you actually can create value.” “There’s a lot of discussion on if we’re in an AI bubble. What is the meaning of this bubble? If anything, we’re just in a lag. There’s a lot of AI, some of it works.” “Go back to the battlefield context: everybody in the world assumed this would not work. But now it does work. Now the question is, ‘How can I get it to work for my country?’” “Palantir barely has a sales force. In fact, it seems to be getting smaller and smaller every time I go see them.”

So, I get a lot of DMs from business owners asking me to retweet their products. And every time I read them, I remember how hard it is to build something and feel invisible. So I’ve been quietly working on something behind the scenes. Something more intentional.🤭

A few years ago I was broke and burned out. I made INMOST, my first indie game, hoping a few people might care. To date, 1.2 million have played it, and it completely changed my life. Today, it’s out on Android and iOS and I can’t express how important this journey has been to me

GM says it’s removing the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto features in favor of its own proprietary software. Does anybody else feel this is a precursor to charge a subscription fee to use CarPlay and Android Auto?

I got a surprise for someone that tried me and thought that was a smart thing to do. I have files on everyone I think has something to say or said about me. I will teach this influencer about how I work. I just be waiting for the opportunity, don’t give it to me. Long story short, someone is about to be selected to be exposed.

Wow, gpt-5.6-sol made me a android app that turns my phone into microphone for my eink tablet! There is something special from getting words on a page using my voice and editing it using a pen and paper-feel. sound on! ps: no harry potter reference in this one, sorry! the reason that I am exploring all these elements in eink is that I am convinced that eink+ai can lead to a much much better type of human computer interaction.
