TouchID is already supported on Omarchy, I use it on my daily driver MacBook works great. The speaker too.

It is quite remarkable how far along support has come: https://aurorasilicon.org/devices/

> TouchID is already supported on Omarchy, I use it on my daily driver MacBook works great.

And the way they have written that driver is absolute crap, not submimissible at all. They will need to write it from scratch, properly, using a TEE driver, a sensor driver, a userspace supplicant plumbing and an fprintd patch. What they did, instead, is they run pretty much everything in-kernel.

So, can't wait for ridiculous exploits that make your fingerprint effectively a backdoor to your OS.

That fingeprint implentation to me is a perfect example of how ignorant Omarchy people and their users are about security and I wish more people were loud about it. Just point your LLM at that TouchID code to audit it, see the amount of stuff it flags.

Support would be great, but there seems no way to download it atm: https://aurorasilicon.org/docs/download/

For M4 and M5, the speakers are not listed as working. M1, M2 and M3 are all using Asahi drivers.

> It is quite remarkable how far along support has come

Is it? All I'm seeing from that page is that they forked Asahi's M1-M4 work, and then failed to bring up M5 and M6. What's remarkable here?
