Haiku OS: The Open Source BeOS You Can Daily Drive In 2024
There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
You can but you won't like it in that role. Back when Be existed it was reasonably up to date, even had a then-current build of Firefox, VLC and a Flash player. To daily drive it today you have to be pretty dedicated.
They seem to have gone with something called Falcon instead of Firefox for some reason. Maybe because it's lightweight perhaps. I wonder what the hurtles are to having a full fat browser on the platform?
Edit: I found this that explains it. They have Wayland and lots of stuff ported but the Wayland implementation is still missing a few small bits to make it work. Very cool though.
