Installed 9front, TOS, and Solaris but I never used any of them seriously because it requires learning completely different workflows. It;s been a while since I installed Solaris and I feel a bit more comfortable with UNIX.
Jayden Robinson
Forgot Haiku, which is pretty easy to use for a newbie compared to the others.
Austin Stewart
Being the contrarians/hipsters that they are, I'm betting there's loads of people who used those solely because they're not popular
Isaac Hughes
i installed haiku for a laugh and then i realized it's useless and deleted the partition
templeos is my daily driver
Daniel Ramirez
Haiku is unironically becoming good. It is our only hope if loonix goes to shit.
Guix is just a more meme gentoo.
NixOS is actually a good distro.
9front is literally a meme. Would be cool on a server though.
Solaris is dead, but openindiana exists. Idk what to say about it.

>>GuixOS
No
>>TempleOS
Love Terry but FUCK NO
>>Haiku
Better than BeOS except for those pesky driver issues - find hw it works on and pray it never fails
>>NixOS
Nah
Front
for a giggle, but no.
>>Oracle Solaris
opensolaris in production (cheap) - it is gnome and aside from slices it works just like a unix distro Haven't tried openindiana yet.
Aaron Butler
I'm running 9front on my Thinkpad right now
Kayden Walker
9front is definitely _not_ a meme OS. I use it unironically every day for my job (programmer) and on my personal machines
Leo Walker
What hardware are y'all running it on? Tried using it on my T60 except audio didn't work and there wasn't support for vmx.
Aaron Miller
Native on Thinkpad X220, kvm/qemu with drawterm on everything else
Lucas Green
>9front
T60 should work fine, I had a T60p and everything seemed to work fine on it.
I think there's some recent commits that address some bugs in the T60 stuff, but I haven't watched it very closely recently.
Also, hostile takeover thread

*notes that inferno hasn’t been updated since March 28th, 2015*
Your move
Jack Carter
We tossed the front off inferno and forked it, code.9front.org
Jacob Perez
>>Oracle Solaris
>>Oracle
It's called illumos you faggot. It works pretty nicely.
Cameron Thomas
*notes that this code is hosted on 9front’s repo site*
9front >>>>> inferno?
Owen Harris
inferno proper is pretty dead, but they're very different projects
Logan Martinez
T420i, everything works perfectly out of the box
Michael Taylor
x61 with working wifi, x1 carbon with just ethernet. Could put a supported wifi card in if desired. Everything works pretty much out of the box.
Joshua Ward
9front is cool but too bad the entire plan 9 community is shit
Easton Martin
>Haiku
Isn’t elementary based on haiku?
Parker Martinez
>X is just a more meme Y
>X is literally a meme
What did he mean by this?
Carter Ortiz
GuixSD needs better documentation.
Chase Sanders
even the 9fans discord? i'd say it's much less obtrusive than say, #cat-v
Owen Foster
the public grid is pretty fun, too
Andrew Evans
I use 9front on my Thinkpad. The simplicity makes everything else look like bloated shit. I wish there was a way to shitpost on it though.
Brayden Torres
>discord
You can't be serious
Christian Carter
VNC to VPS :)
Jace Watson
Evan Butler
Isaiah Johnson
there's a matrix room floating around, too
Hudson Cooper
Is there a XMPP MUC?
what's that
Noah Smith
It's GuixSD and literally no other distro is relevant anymore.
Best thing that ever happened to my computer.
Step up faggots.

doesnt allow system wide build specifications like gentoo though
