#34Yet I still can not use ruby on it ... Sorry guys - Haiku is a great idea, but it needs to become a real operating system semi-advanced users can use daily. And it hasn't been at that since years. Linux works.
> Linux works. Which distro? Linux is an OS kernel , not a full operating system. I still need to know which distro to choose before I install it. No need to do that with macOS or Windows, but Linux is always a problem.

So your parent may've taken the 'is it useful' comments to mean 'if not, why even exist' but I got the sense they're more from people who are considering an install, even if just in a VM.

It's just a name, after all. More accurately, this site would be titled VC Incubator News.
And how boring it would be if that's all it was.

#38Using BeOS was a fantastic experience in 1999, and it's sad that it hasn't caught on. I'm rooting for all OSes that bring different perspectives to the OS world instead of being another textbook Unix variant. My only qualm is how HaikuOS, and AmigaOS for that matter, fail to carry over their aesthetics to a high-resolution/HiDPI world. I see gradients, overly-empahsized embosses in the UI screenshots. They lack the s…
Haiku has a flat theme.
