Asahi Linux Progress Linux 7.3

I didn't know about their LLM stance, but I feel like Asahi are shooting themselves in the foot. Giving up the advantage to toxic teams like Omarchy is strategically wrong. They could use llms for reverse engineering and drafting and as you said still rewrite the final versyof the code.

At the end of the day the decision is on them. If they want to be slower in development than clank-using competitors, so be it.

Would really prefer they didn’t lose to DHH of all people tho

Maybe to them it’s not a race, and more a journey? Or to put it differently, why the rush? It’s not like they’re trying to corner the “Linux on Apple Silicon” market, last I checked?

And to add to that "journey" story, they probably also understand that writing the code is only one part of it, and they probably want to remain in a position to maintain it

It's not about the journey if you don't want (certain) other people to use it as they have so far, but rather about status, and they're afraid of losing that status.
