Haiku Revisited: The Really Alternative OS - YouTube

Christopher Barnatt from explainingcomputer.com explains the basics of @haiku in this excellent video by showing the usage of the UI and installing ported software like @libreoffice @GIMP and @FirefoxOfficial

@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.

Flawlessly upgraded #haikuos to beta/r6
pkgman add-repo https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haiku/r1beta6/$(getarch)/current

Why 64bit #haikuos requirements are so high compared to 32bit modest ones? https://www.haiku-os.org/get-haiku/r1beta6/release-notes/

A web browser is probably the single most important program for me, so knowing that #Firefox, #Waterfox and #Librewolf run on #HaikuOS is a big step forward in its... "daily-driver-ability" for me

Auch heute Abend habe ich mich mit der neuen Version von #HaikuOS auseinander gesetzt.
Es durfte aus der virtuellen Maschine ausbrechen und auf einem echten Klassiker sesshaft werden. Ein 2-Kern Notebook mit SSD und 4GB Ram wurde von seinem #Windows10 befreit. #Firefox und #Simutrans sind bereits installiert. Das gute Stück, von circa 2009, ist betagt aber mit dem schmalen Unterbau (~300mb Ram nach Start) nutzbar. #WLAN funktionierte, einfach so. Einen #Mastodon Client, #Tokodon, gibt es direkt im Repo.
Wer weiß, vielleicht mache ich mir eine schicke Schreibmaschine daraus 😄 -
... und jetzt noch das Sahnehäubchen um euch gänzlich verrückt zu machen: das ist der Host.
Was soll ich sagen ... es läuft

Huh? Wie? Nee, nix besonderes, bisschen rumklicken, dies das ...

Ich? Gerade? Ach, nichts nichts ...

Watch a guy install the latest #HaikuOS on a bunch of old laptops (2000s, 2010s) and it even works on some of them, with WiFi and, apparently, 3D acceleration. Haiku is definitely an option to revitalize old laptops. It runs the latest Firefox. SDL and some other key libraries are available, so lots of open source games and applications should run fine (though you might have to build them). Haiku is, of course, #SlopFree or else I wouldn't be boosting it. #Haiku
-
I always forget how easy it is to upgrade #HaikuOS to the latest version.
My build machine is now running r1beta6. I'm running a test build of MAME, just to check everything's working as it should.
EDIT: MAME built fine! Very satisfying.

🤔 Wow, the latest "revolutionary" Haiku beta dropped after a mere two-year journey from the last one. 🎉 Aged like fine wine, just in time for its quarter-century milestone—perfect for the 7 users who actually care. 🍷🎂 Wait—did they get a special 2-for-1 deal on Google Summer of Code mentions? 📈👨💻

RE: https://social.treehouse.systems/@danctnix/116329324585191985
April 1st is over.
However, we really do want to port Haiku to the RK356x.
In fact, there is progress on porting Haiku to arm64 and it seems to be making good progress: https://discuss.haiku-os.org/t/arm64-port-for-haiku/18772/1
We have NO PLANS to deprecate our ALARM-based Linux distro. 🙂

Maybe can run #android in VM and run banking, insurance, and other apps there? Otherwise maybe get an used M1 mac and run the #iOS apps? perhaps some <100 euro android phones will do as well? otherwise get an iPad mini and use that for the next 5-6 yrs
