      While haiku has a long way to go, right now Linux is still a terrible desktop OS.

        It might be a terrible desktop OS, we just don’t have anything better. So it kind of great desktop OS.

          1. It’s built on concepts from the 60s.
          2. It’s not user friendly in the slightest
          3. It focuses on speed over security.

          As an example

              It’s a literal UNIX clone. That should be obvious.

            Sounds like a philosophical answer to a technical question. What distro, what desktop environment are we talking about? What were you unable to do, what was impractical? Surely a terrible OS has more to show than three vague bullet points…
