This is why I gravitated to Plan 9. Overall a better design for a networked world and can be understood by a single developer. People can and have maintained their own forks. Its very simple, small and cross platform was baked in from day one. 9P makes everything into a IO socket organized as a tree of names objects. Thankfully it's not POSIX which IMO is not worth dragging along for decades. You can port Unix things with libraries. It also abandons the typewriter terminal and instead uses graphics. A fork, 9front, is not abandoning 32 bit any time soon AFIK. I netboot an older Industrial computer that is a 400MHz Geode (32 bit x86) with 128 MB RAM and it runs 9front just fine. Its not perfect and lacks features but that stands to reason for any niche OS without a large community. Figure out what is missing for you and work on fixing it - patches welcome.
