I just switched over to it from Ubuntu. So far the nice thing is that it gives you a fully decked out hyprland setup without any of the hassle and pretty good UX.
The problem I've always had with trying out a tiling window manager like hyprland is you're going to spend a very long time trying to get everything just right. With Omarchy I get a really nice hyprland setup right out of the box.
Github is awash with people's dotfiles including fully featured DEs built on top of things like Hyprland and Noctalia, and they don't require you to use a mess of a distro to use them.

I used Vim for a decade (and Linux for much of that time) and the constant tweaking and changing things drives you mad after a while. The more you invent it yourself the more it changes. This is why I prefer MacOS+VSCode these days, which comes with good defaults and simpler VIM-style bindings.
Omarchy sounds like those popular vim configs such as https://astronvim.com/, which I also tried using and also ended up heavily customizing myself. It provided some nice defaults as a baseline but was ultimately comes with too much hyper-customization (which has a lot to do with vim/neovim trying to act like other more modern editors).
