  2. Little shout out to the #FOSS worlds underdog #opensource OS projects:
    - #illumos
    - #HaikuOS
    - #DragonFlyBSD
    - #Redox
    - #GNUHurd
    - #ReactOS

    All cool projects that always need some extra hands.

    The #BeFS documentation (from #HaikuOS website) clearly states - and does that - already (2004):

    > "[key/value metadata attributes] add considerable power to a file system and endow the file system with many of the features normally associated with a database."
