Fellow linux users, if you can have one thing from other operating systems in linux, what would it be?

For me, it's the Adobe suite. Not that it's perfect, but the alternatives for most of its appa are really out of the competition, especially for Photoshop.

Aero is a new modern, experimental, unix-like operating system following the monolithic kernel design. Supporting modern PC features such as long mode, 5-level paging, and SMP (multicore), to name a few.

Its already able to run programs such as the GNU coreutils, GNU binutils, Nyancat, TinyCC, GCC and soon doom generic and rust aswell :)

What are the benefits of using Linux over other operating systems?

Hello! I've been using Ubuntu for a while now, and so far, I love it. But I'm primarily talking about the UI when I compare it with another OS like Windows. What are some actual functional benefits of Linux over other operating systems? I'm not talking about things like Linux being open-source, free, more secure, etc. I'm learning App Dev, so are there any benefits that I can take advantage of on a day-to-day basis that makes my workflow easier? For example, I've heard of being able to automate some things using the bash scripts in the terminal. I'm sorry if I said something stupid and sound like a complete beginner; it's because I am.

Thank you for your time!

LibertyOS needs Rustaceans to take this operating system to another level!

Hello there! I am Daniel, and I am the creator, and lead-developer of LibertyOS. LibertyOS is an operating system, written in Rust, that I created out of a strong desire to write my own operating system. After nearly a decade of wanting to create an OS, I discovered Rust, and I realized that I could finally accomplish my goal.

In recent weeks, LOS has really been "blowing up" in popularity. The official Discord group has over 40 members, the repository has ~140 stars, and I just did an interview on a Rust-centered podcast (I don't know if I can say which one, but there aren't too many).

We have plenty of idea guys, which is a wonderful thing, but I am still the only person who knows how to develop the actual kernel. I don't know if this is the right place to do so, but I am asking for any help that this community can provide. More specifically, I am looking for people who know Rust, understand the basics of an operating system, know how to work without the standard library, and want to make something awesome.

If you cannot help, that is fine. I would ask that you still check out the repository, and maybe join the Discord group so we can all hang out. I am not giving up (I am far more interested in this project than ever before), but the project has really been doing well lately, and I could really use some help. :)

The repository is https://github.com/LibertyOS-Development/kernel

Discord server: https://discord.gg/NkjeZavBFK

Thank you all! I love this community, and I look forward to sharing the awesome stuff that comes out of this project!

P.S. We are thinking of changing the name. We need something related to the concept of liberty, privacy, etc., so if you have an idea for a better name, please let me know! :)

A web browser-based distributed operating system

Hello to all!

I am currently developing a web application being a distributed operating system and I would like to have your feedback on the subject.

The idea is that today, we have multiple ways to represent a product or a service on a web page. The techniques and concepts evolving rapidly in the front-end domain, I had the idea to start again on the basis regarding the operability of a system. So I developed a web site taking the form of a command terminal.

Most of the Linux commands are implemented, so you can create folders and files in your directories as soon as you are connected. In the future, I want to provide video, image and audio playback applications, as well as make a torrent client.

The advantage of being on a distributed OS is that the filesystem of all users can be shared, which means that you can visit your neighbor's directory (except for the hidden folders).

Here you go, I hope you enjoy and I'm waiting for your feedback :)

After Windows fried my graphic card I decided to make the switch (it's actually return) to Linux. I've used pop os for a long time but never for art or video editing. I was considering pop os but I need to know what other os have to offer since my work requires long hours of rendering and heavy long videos also 3D art.

I use Linux as my operating system

I use Linux as my operating system," I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. "Actually", he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!' I don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "I use Alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU coreutils, or any other GNU code. It's Linux, but it's not GNU+Linux."

The smile quickly drops from the man's face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams "I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!" Coolly, I reply "If windows was compiled with gcc, would that make it GNU?" I interrupt his response with "-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even you were correct, you wont be for long."

With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I've womansplained him to death.

Before I consider buying the Pinephone pro as a daily driver, I am wondering if the following apps are available on any one OS. I understand linux to a reasonable degree, but have not coded apps before, so adding them myself isn't going to work well. The apps I use are:

-phone and text and contacts

-settings

-a web browser

-camera

-gallery

-a file explorer

-pdf viewer

-calculator

-notes

-calendar

-clock+alarm

-an MP3 player

Bonus points:

-F-droid apps useable, in particular: organic maps, KeePass XC, and Aegis authenticator

That's all I use. Is there an OS that has these apps available to it?

News stated that "Roku TV is the No. 1 selling Smart TV Operating System in U.S" just 2 days ago. Today, Atlantic Inequities decided to start covering ROKU after - I am assuming - not covering them.

They decide that this company's stock price target is some 50 - 60% less valuable than previous price targets stated and the entire market responds and sells off ROKU bringing the price waaayyy down.

Is it possible to have an operating system on the blockchain? Is this something we will see in the future?

I know it's probably not the best idea to put everything on a blockchain, but this has me wondering if an OS attached to a blockchain would be more secure. Even something as simple as getting software updates can be validated to make sure it's being downloaded from the correct source. This could potentially block malware or other malicious attacks on computers/servers. If we have software that lives on a blockchain and can be checked to make sure it's the correct source, it seems like the internet would be safer, right? I have no idea how the code behind the scenes works or if this is even feasible, but considering you need an active internet connection for most OSes to even work, I can't see any problem from a layman point of view.
