This isn’t Linux, but Linux-like. Its a microkernel built from the rust programming language. Its still experimental, but I think it has great potential. It has a GUI desktop, but the compiler isn’t quite fully working yet.

Has anyone used this before? What was your experience with it?

Note: If this is inappropriate since this isn’t technically Linux, mods please take down.

      1. breaks compatibility
      2. breaks compatibility
      3. breaks compatibility
      4. hard to add without breaking compatibility

      Then we arrive at Rust as a natural outcome.

      And it’s of course possible to migrate to Rust from C or C++ progressively, fish has almost got it done.

      Idk what the iso fuck up and I don’t code enough to appreciate whatever technical debt exists in either so I am probably sound like an idiot but…

      Since I do infosec, the glaring issue for me is not being memory safe.
