I'm not sure that anything like this would ever be suitable for a daily driver due to a lack of graphics drivers and the like. It would be amazing if there was an OS agnostic driver layer, or if we could somehow reuse the driver stack from Linux or Windows. As far as I'm aware nothing like that actually exists though.

The *BSDs import the Linux graphics drivers these days. Big chunk of AMD GPU drivers are autogenerated from hardware description tables.

It depends what you want to do for a "daily driver". Basic things like writing documents, viewing images, and (limited) web browsing using a text-based browser would probably be perfectly fine with an unaccelerated framebuffer. It would be amazing if there was an OS agnostic driver layer That's what things like VESA VBE are for.
