> URIs as namespace paths allowing access to system resources both locally and on the network without mounting or unmounting anything
This is such an attractive idea, and I'm gonna give it a try just because I want something with this idea to succeed. Seems the project has many other great ideas too, like the modular kernel where implementations can be switched out. Gonna be interesting to see where it goes! Good luck author/team :)
Edit: This part scares me a bit though: "Graphics Stack: compositing in-kernel", but I'm not sure if it scares me because I don't understand those parts deeply enough. Isn't this potentially a huge hole security wise? Maybe the capability-based security model prevents it from being a big issue, again I'm not sure because I don't think I understand it deeply or as a whole enough.
Also the only approach for systems where people advocate for static linking everything, yet another reason why dynamic loading became a thing.
The intro page is currently useless.
- Multi-user and server-oriented permissions system.
- Incompatible ABIs
- File-based everything; leads to scattered state that gets messy over time.
- Package managers and compiling-from-source instead of distributing runnable applications directly.
- Dependence on CLI, and steep learning curve.
Docker tries to partially address this, right?

I think this is partially eased by LLMs.
Reactos if you need something to replace windows
Implementing support for docker on these operating systems could give them the life you are looking for
What's that parenthetical mean?
