That's a very unfortunate comment in the second paragraph.
- Sakos 4y agoShould probably clarify in what ways (or for what) it's supposedly better. That's quite the inflammatory statement.
- camgunz 4y agoI think the meaning here is "better <to be> compared to a BSD", as in it's closer to a BSD than a Linux in terms of design and ethos.
- Sakos 4y agoAh, you're right.
- projektfu 4y agoI don't read that sentence to mean it's better than BSD, rather that Oasis is more like BSD than a typical Linux distribution. "It is better compared to" is an idiom meaning "the comparison is more apt to".

- rafram 4y agoYou’re misreading it. The author means that it’s more similar to a BSD than to a typical Linux system, as the previous sentence makes clear.
- unsafecast 4y ago((better compared) (to BSD)), not (better (compared to BSD)) :)
- endorphine 4y agoOr: "[...] is better compared to BSD", not "[...] is better, compared to BSD".
- unsafecast 4y agoYeah, that's definitely a better way to put it.
- speed_spread 4y agophrasing should be changed to "similar to BSD in design".
- mforney 4y agoSorry for the confusing wording. I meant that oasis has more similarities to a BSD than a typical Linux distribution. I've updated the README to be a bit clearer.
- snvzz 4y agoGood work.
