I'm glad someone gets it. I've been using Linux as my daily driver for about a decade at this point. I can understand the desire to hack on that for fun, because doing so would actually bring about a tangible improvement to my life.
I find the desire to work on a 30 year old operating system that still lacks USB support much more confusing.
- spookie 3y agoAs far as my understanding goes, there are 2 main reasons: 1. The very specific nature of the OS, which aims to be (in theory) very modular 2. You need to partake on a very clear idea of what software freedom means, in every sense of the word I don't use Hurd, but I do get it. I feel it's quite simple. Just because it isn't there yet doesn't mean one wouldn't want to hack on it from time to time

I think your stance is entirely reasonable, and one I resonate with, but it felt like you expected Hurd enthusiasts to convince you that you should care. Which feels like missing the point, to me, at least.
