    @pak0st @nuttx @redox I have KolibriOS on my old desktop, probably one of the most feature-complete installs. But it's very insecure and unstable. Nuttx and Redox are interesting, and so is Genode. But I don't feel like I could daily drive them...

      @nina_kali_nina @WiteWulf Haiku is apparently, very anti-slop.

      They recently just made a change on their forum which moves slops to the same category as "Proprietary" and outright banning slop-generated content on their forum.

        @nina_kali_nina i mean, i am hardly the expert, but you seem to have picked like the two least gay options.

        @drj @nina_kali_nina I don't know how to grade this (is it the SysV/BSD split?), but I'd bet good money on Solaris being less gay, just by being owned by Oracle.

          @joe it might, but I fear for safety/security etc etc. It's a primary machine after all

            @mhd @drj I'd say Solaris on SPARC is very gay in 2026, even if it wasn't sexy in 2006

                  @nina_kali_nina can't speak firsthand to its gayness, but Haiku seems like it might fit your other criteria

                    Security is one factor. OpenBSD prides itself on it, but I wouldn't say it's particularly ahead of Linux overall in a practical, well-configured scenario. NetBSD is considerably less audited, and a C3 talk about BSD security was... scathing on it.

                    Software availability is another. Spent a non-trivial amount of time getting Minecraft to run on NetBSD. In general, more things will break, and there will be fewer documented fixes - unless you only use FOSS, and even then.

                    I recall OpenBSD having some performance issues at the time when running IntelliJ, which I think were fixable with enough tuning but I never got that far.

                    But I welcome trying it - it was certainly a valuable and fun experience until I realized more things work out of the box on Linux.

                      @slava @nina_kali_nina illumOS might fit the bill too. but it sounds like the devs are pretty LLM-happy these days

                          Oomfies, what's more gay? The winner is likely going to be my desktop OS. Others ideas are welcome, as long as it's fairly usable, open source and not Linux

                            @netbsd @nina_kali_nina Absolutely based. That's a follow and a boost upwards in the list of OSes I like.

                              @mrmasterkeyboard @nina_kali_nina Don't know if I'd go as far as calling it based, it's a fairly basic stance. We have trans developers. They shouldn't suffer.
