I mean it’s neat. And it’s oriented towards desktop use more so than any other OS I have ever used.
Personally I am very excited to finally see haiku ver 1 soon. For an old laptop it is very VERY lightweight and gets most work related tasks you could want done.
Being lightweight is valuable in my opinion, it’s also a really nice architecture without all the baggage that Linux has. I find it really appealing to have lean software that’s optimized for a particular use case. It’s also POSIX compliant so a lot Linux skills are transferable, and software from Linux is fairly easy to port over. The fact that Firefox got ported shows that it’s doable even with complex GUI apps.

Also, so glad I’m on my own instance so I can welcome lemmygrad content! Thanks for responding :)
I don’t get that phrase. Isn’t windows mostly desktop use? How is this more desktop oriented?
Other than lightweight what do you find appealing about it?
I like with Linux that what I learn on my servers and desktops transfers.
