I miss BeOS. I should try Haiku some day. I used BeOS as my daily driver on early 2000s.

Haiku is awesome, I really like the design principles they follow. Very friendly community as well. I did a write up of it on my capsule recently:

i have mine on a 4k screen from macos at 2560x1600 good and sharp in a window, 16 bit color, 60hz, increased font sizes. about double cpu than my deb12 vm · 2 years ago

I wanted to like Haiku, but it was rough to run in a VM on a high DPI display where my host OS uses display scaling :( · 2 years ago

Haiku is nice. Unfortunately, none of my machines can run it, but the devs in the IRC room will try really hard to get you up and running if you want to give it a go! · 2 years ago
