    Love this project

    Wish they would pair it with NuShell which ties in perfectly with Rust uutils

      • Device drivers - ACPI, AML, GPU, USB, IOMMU, WiFi
      • Graphics and Web - Gtk, Qt, Wayland, WebKitGTK, SpiderMonkey
      • Redox as a Hypervisor - Podman, Docker, Buildah, FUSE, Linux-on-Redox
      • Database support - Filesystem improvements, MySQL, Postgres, MongoDB
      • Performance - Scheduler, Filesystem performance, Network stack performance
      Abandon the graphics/web stack, use servo : D also gfxstream support for redox would be amazing, it should be fairly easy to implement all things considered (it was designed to be). Having support for vulkan on redox would be great.

        When billionaire tech companies will use it a base for their base whatever system in a few years, I hope they will have the decency to contribute financially to the project.

              Seriously? Are you just waiting to jump on somebody with that kind of negativity? Geez

              If you think you can do it better and faster than they’re doing it, then go for it and show me that the progress they’re making is not quick and not constant and not impressive. I’ll wait.

                  I don't know why Rust is bad and I don't care! With KDE buggier than MS, Gnome more dictatorial than osX and linux gone 100% corporate... this is the only hope I have for a modicum of Open in the source.
                  This is fresh and still fork-able, with some luck there might be some ppl noticing the domain name > foundation board > COC trap and make this peer-to-peer hosted. With an unmoderated forum it just need a few basic safeguards like posting max quota against flooding, ostracism mechanism and fluid representation against cliques with a decent proposal forming dialectic braching scheme (agree/reformulate/dissagre). Ah, and desktop cube effect! ) But seriously, this is a breath of fresh air in the has-been 'free & open' world

                    Don't let the people who fling statements like "rust bad!!11!!!!!!!1!!1!!!" influence you too much. Rust is a perfectly fine language for what it's designed for, and that design criteria comes with an insane learning curve.

                    What do you mean by KDE being buggier than M$?? I've been on KDE for well over a year and I've had such a great time. The only bugs I've had were on plasma 5.27.X, and plasma 6 has been really nice since 6.1.
