The first response to the latest release is Everything's broken (was: Debian GNU/Hurd 2023 released!) and they pretty much beg you to only run it in a VM. So we can safely assume it's going to be stable until the end of the year. #2024YearOfHurdOnDesktop
"Everything's broken" / "only run it in a VM". Where have I heard that before? Oh yes. ReactOS.
Totally different OS project with some remarkable similarities, apparently.
ReactOS has a head start. Who will win?
Popcorn, anyone?
(But seriously, I'd very much like both to do well.)
Sometimes you got to take a leap of faith 🫣🐂🐃🦬 🤣
postscript : the guy who said everything was broken, seemed to just have had a broken filesystem, ironically the advantages of a microkernel like hurd led to him even being able to boot without a kernel panic() 🤯 🤔
