In the commercial world the first release a new OS with GUI only takes about 4 years, depending. Hurd has exceeded that by a huge margin.

- mannyv 3y agoAlso, given its velocity, 'strike back' is totally the wrong phrase. 'Strike back' implies speed and/or alacrity, neither of which gnu/hurd possesses in any appreciable quantity.

SerenityOS not only built a GUI but the beginnings of the first greenfield web browser to gain any semblance of modern standards support in the past several decades. Honestly, what's Hurd doing wrong to flounder so hard?
