Not-a-Linux distro review: SerenityOS is a Unix-y love letter to the ‘90s
I'm impressed by everything about this project, but the idea of re-writing everything from scratch would seem to doom this project to obscurity. No?<p>How can any open-source project compete if it doesn't lean on other open-source projects? Am I missing something?<p>This approach seems to guarantee that they can do a handful of things better than anyone else (because they control the whole stack), but not enough things to ever be truly complete OS for any given market segment.<p>Unless 1000 developers fall in love and choose to participate and compensate for the absence of other OS code, I don't see how this can grow sustainably. I'd love to be wrong, though.
