I was looking into Hyperbola Linux, when I came across this post. In this post it is outlined why Hyperbola Linux is switching to a BSD base. A bold move, but I hope it works out for the team.

However, I am curious about the four points they outlined as reasons for switching away from the Linux kernel. Is the Linux kernel really careening down a path of instability and binary blobs, or is this just a case of the Linux kernel’s development not fitting with Hyperbola’s design goals?

    Super-duper-new-OS is about HyperbolaBSD. Hyperbola ain’t even independent distro, it is based on Arch

        Yeah, instead of modifying Linux kernel they take pointless (on desktop, Hyperbola is (was?) desktop-oriented distro) OpenBSD kernel.
