- karteum 5y agoSerenityOS is licenced under BSD-2-Clause License while SkyOS was entirely proprietary (and therefore disappeared when its development stalled), so the comparison seems irrelevant (your point would be more relevant if you were mentioning Syllable instead, which was quited advanced and open-source, yet somewhat seems to have disappeared... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllable_Desktop https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syllable_Desktop . But since source-code is available anyone could restart it :) I also hope that SerenityOS has a long and successful lifespan, as it seems promising !)
- marcodiego 5y agoAFAIR SkyOS started as open source. But considering current direction, I really don't think there is any risk of the same happening to SerenityOS.
