Linux is... a little alienating, isn't it? How many people can hold the whole thing in their head? Not many - and I don't think it's seamless enough to work as another layer of magic, either. People accept OS X because it's another layer of magic.
TempleOS was written by one guy, so I assume it can fit inside one head. Linux has been written by a lot of people over several decades.
Maybe I'm completely wrong about this, I don't know. But I'm getting old and lazy, so these days I'm on Windows.
I'm a little surprised there aren't more weird OSes going around these days, now that everything runs in the browser except text editors and fancy video games.

Don't know what you're talking about, but I've used plenty of text editors and played fancy video games in a browser. The day will come when your can run a hardware emulator in your browser and use to it run your hobby OS or even a C64 image for you to hack on.
