      i really like the filesystem (BeFS) and the cool abstractions its attribute system allows, its message-passing system, how lightweight it is, great community, very UNIXy, etc.

      it also has the most pleasant GUI i’ve touched in a very long time— everything’s snappy, cohseive, and sensical. i normally hate floating WM, and hate letting GUIs do things for me, but with haiku it’s different.
