David Heinemeier HanssonandClaude Opus 5.5 b18ab4952b Add a no-animations mode, on by default in VMs (#13550)
A machine without a GPU, like most VMs, renders through llvmpipe on the
CPU, where every animated frame and every translucent window costs. In a
VM, opening and closing a terminal took ~5s of CPU; a panel ~3.4s.

omarchy toggle animations (also under Toggle > Animations) places a Hyprland
flag that turns off animations, blur and shadows and makes windows opaque.
The shell follows Hyprland's animations:enabled, rereading it on every
config reload: its one-shot animations run for Style.duration(ms), which
is then 0, and its spinners, pulses and title marquee hold still. A new
install in a VM starts with the flag in place.

Measured in the ISO test VM (llvmpipe), CPU per interaction:
terminal open+close 5000ms -> 481ms, workspace switch 1670ms -> 409ms,
audio panel 3446ms -> 796ms, volume OSD 2324ms -> 584ms, menu 2028ms ->
1241ms.

Tailscale Omarchy Widget

Native Omarchy bar widget for Tailscale.

Features

  • Shows Tailscale connection state in the bar
  • Left click opens a keyboard-friendly panel
  • Right click toggles Tailscale on/off
  • Switch between available Tailscale connections when multiple are available
  • Browse machines from tailscale status --json
  • Copy a machine's Tailscale IP, host name, or DNS name
  • Send files to a machine with Taildrop, when the tailnet allows file sharing

Keyboard shortcuts

Inside the panel:

  • j / k or arrows: move cursor
  • enter / space: activate current row
  • c: copy selected peer IP
  • n: copy selected peer name
  • d: copy selected peer DNS name
  • s: send files to selected peer
  • t: toggle Tailscale
  • r: refresh status
  • esc: close

Requirements

  • tailscale CLI on PATH
  • wl-copy for clipboard copy actions
  • Taildrop enabled for the tailnet, to send files

Receiving files

Incoming Taildrop files are saved to ~/Downloads by the omarchy-tailscale-receive service, which announces each one with a notification (an image preview when the file is an image, and a click to open it). The Tailscale service install enables it; omarchy tailscale receive runs the same loop by hand.

Icon

Renders the Tailscale mark natively as a theme-colored 3×3 dot grid, matching the official SVG silhouette while avoiding tiny-SVG rendering quirks in the bar.

Add to the bar

This widget ships as first-party plugin omarchy.tailscale. Add it with omarchy plugin enable omarchy.tailscale, then place it with omarchy bar move omarchy.tailscale if desired.
