I kind of miss MULTICS, sure Unix/Linux..plan9? Are smaller lighter and more maintainable, but multics had features every single unix-like misses until today. If you wanna try out MULTICS: https://ban.ai/multics/ https://ban.ai/multics/ But they are offline ATM don't know why... Or with the emulator (DPS8-M): http://ringzero.wikidot.com/ http://ringzero.wikidot.com/

You can download and run your own Multics system under emulation: https://multicians.org/sim-inst.html https://multicians.org/sim-inst.html
