Chris Kearney@SiliconForested🔥Omarchy Mac Users 🔥 The original maintainer didn’t want AI-generated contributions. Fair enough—we respected that boundary, forked the project, and got to work. The result after roughly 21 hours: • 29 PRs merged across two repos • 115 new commits beyond the inherited baseline • 7 PR authors contributing in parallel We now have working Apple Video Decoder acceleration for H.264, HEVC and VP9 on M-series Macs running Asahi/Omarchy, plus opt-in H.264 High 10.
