I make the specification of non-linux because otherwise this would just become a thread full of obscure distros that do the same thing as a million other distros.

Some lesser known OSs:

  • AROS - based on Amiga OS, has some derivatives like IcarOS and MorphOS
  • Haiku - based on BeOS
  • Redox - Unix-like, made in Rust (might technically count as linux?)
  • Serenity - Unix-like, very late 90s look and feel
  • Kolibri - Tiny OS, the image is ~44MB. It also has a smaller version that fits in a single floppy.
  • PhantomOS - When 3 Russians decide to turn everything about a typical OS upside down.

    TempleOS, because for it to go mainstream, a sizeable chunk of the population would need to go fully insane, and I think that’d be interesting

      Maybe more insane would actually cancel out the insanity already existing?

      Or do I now sound insane?

      Anyway, came for Temple OS as well.
