Haiku-os looks like a win xp
Kevin Nguyen
But XP gui is superior over Linux/Mac/Win8 counterparts, right?
Alexander Perez
As soon as the beta comes out that's going on my T60 and likely never coming off.
Ayden Flores
XP interface is superior only to Windows 10 UWP thrash. I remember switching to Vista the moment it came out because the UI (especially start menu) was far superior.
Adrian Williams
Sorry, OS wars is so 1995, just like BeOS.
Ethan Adams
You can get more use out of AROS or AmigaOS 4 then Haiku
Jace Thomas
Don't forget MorphOS.
Connor Wood
yeah if windows had a decent api
and window snap tabbing
and robust file attributes
haiku is just generally badass and desu I like the yellow brutalist look
John Roberts
What even is haiku?
Alexander Hernandez
It's not better than haiku. I like the minimizable, tree style taskbar. Not that you even need a taskbar with window tabbing.

>everything runs as root
It's a neat OS but not good for daily use.
Colton Rodriguez
It was BeOS like 20 years ago, cool but hardly anybody working on it so it died off but re-emerged almost unchanged as Haiku with nobody working on it.
I just like it for nostalgia sake since BeOS was the very first "alternative OS" I had heard of that could just be download for free back in the Windows 98 days. I tried it and it's nice but everything has to be ported to it so you have very few software options. Tried it again a few years ago as Haiku and it was like going back in time.
It's how I found out about Linux though and wound up using Debian.
Ryder Jenkins
Depends on your "daily use" doesn't it?
Aaron Wright
No because day refers to current year.
Anthony Peterson
Haiku is cool os for old computers and is really modern in tthis days, evolving every day

i'm not sure what this off-model cutesy bubble girl has to do with my comment
Samuel Rodriguez
haiku is nice except the total lack of security (just between processes, really) is pretty silly and it's still unstable as hell

RISC OS Open is unironically a great little proof of concept for the ARM SoCs, and how great they could be with software written with it in mind.
Logan Bennett
The programming manuals are a pretty fun introduction to arm assembly and operating systems.
Andrew Roberts
Are you too stupid to not destroy your system on a daily basis

Haiku is UNIX-like. I'm not taking any chances with that.
Lucas Jones
The difference is that Haiku is often shilled on Jow Forums by it's devs and fanbois, while those operating systems are not.
You can't expect a site with 90% being under the age of 21 to know any of those operating systems. Most think UNIX and Linux are even the same.
Benjamin King
>Haiku is UNIX-like.
No, it's partially POSIX compatible. Kids these days.
Nicholas Lopez
Seems self explanatory enough.
Andrew Ortiz
It's funny how people here make fun of Hurd but tote around the idea of haiku.
The last preview release was 5 years ago.
Meanwhile Hurd now has the ability to use Guix package manager and shepherd the init system.
Not that I'm willing to use either but I'd argue which is more relevent?
I do want to settle on GuixSD down the road though.
