@Debby Eble Haiku-OS? Ĝi estas tre malgranda kaj bezonas malpli da resursoj, sed sufiĉe moderna kaj kapabla. Kaj la apogo de Esperanto estas tre bona.

I'm genuinely impressed by Haiku. I used to love BeOS, back in the day, which I got to experience around R5. They upped their compat game a lot since I last looked.
Aside from how ludicrously tight, fast, responsive and minimally efficient it still is, what kind of shocks me is how the icons, window decorations, buttons, dialogs and UX in general still looks really slick by today's standards. It does not really feel any sort of retro, in the slightest, which is an odd feeling.

An AI refuser register writer did a review of Haiku. They conclude with:
"We like to imagine a world of Haiku clients, talking to NetBSD back-end servers, and nothing but feature-phones – maybe running a revived Symbian. No AI, no Electron apps anywhere. A sky as clear and blue as the Haiku desktop, with no trace of a Cloud to be seen. That sounds idyllic to us. If it does to you as well, we think you might enjoy trying Haiku."
They did point out a weakness to Haiku in that it doesn't have user management, so the user is always the administrator.
