I've heard it described as a "highly opinionated configuration set".

I would say that is accurate, if you would also describe a drunken
fistfight outside a bar as a "frank and straightforward exchange of
views".

Using Super-X to launch Twitter is deeply insulting.

Removing that isn't trivial, unless you want to hard-fork and do all
the updating yourself from there on.

So yeah. It's a hyprland dotfiles with strong feelings about how
things should be done. I recommend it if you have a machine you don't
particularly mind wiping first, to use as the scapegoat.

DO NOT attempt to lay it over anything other than a completely stock
and vanilla Arch install. It will break obscure things in exciting new
ways that will require a wipe and clean install or deep tinkering to
locate/correct.

To be fair, it's by DHH - the guy who made Ruby on Rails. So this is all terribly unsurprising.
