I love this. I think both of you are right, but your perspectives are for different time frames, with one side having an ideal view about a future time frame, while the other thinking about the now. This is the kind of situation that leads to innovation and how projects like Linux or neovim started. It's a natural way to progress. I hope jackpot51 gets pissed off and takes redox to the point where it proves the naysayers wrong, which will take time and effort, and doesn't serve the now.
- simias 9y agoI really hope that redox will eventually become a competitor to OpenBSD and other flagship OSs, I'd love to work on a Rust OS. That being said I still don't think it makes sense to label it a competitor at this stage though. If I decided to start practicing Formula One next week that won't automatically make me competition for Lewis Hamilton. Redox has some way to go before people can seriously consider using it over OpenBSD for real world applications.
