How would IQfy design a modern operating system from the ground up excluding limiting factors such as drivers and software.
Just grab Linux
Win95 aesthetic with no bloatware.
Debate me.
I support your superior opinion, aerochad.
I like both Aero and 95/98 UI aesthetic. As long as it isn't garbage flat shit.
based
>zoom zoom
So Alpine Linux with a custom xfce rice, not that hard to do
So serenityOS? I hope it gets more traction
just install openvms
Win11 but with all the legacy menus removed and a revamped Settings app where you can go into everything you need. Oh and all the bloated shit removed.
>Everything
Just install the everything search tool from voidtools
https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/
Not exactly what I mean. I hate how for a lot of settings you still have to forgo the Settings app and have to instead go into the control panel which is peak Windows XP... Shit sucks, I wish we could have a proper UI instead of having to rely on legacy UI shit.
>I don't need something to pull up files like that really
Oh, ok. Then try Launchy https://www.launchy.net/
This should work for you
Don't really like the new UI because you can't open new sub-windows like in the old control panel.
But the worst is that this multi billion dollar company can't transfer all settings in a new menu in 12 years.
We went from windows 2000 to 8 in 12 years, and from 8 to 11 in another 12. Basically half the time where using computers is popular & mainstream windows has these 2 control panels.
>Oh and all the bloated shit removed.
that's like the entire os
I'd make it so that every part and operation can be interrupted and examined, possibly visualized, embrace Terry's motorcycle. It's hard to specify details of a personal design without first having a wide understanding of OS architecture, which I don't have, but I'd leave a lot of the decisions made by the kernel, up to the user. Think memory allocation, scheduling, shit like that.
Read modern papers on micro kernels etc and see if anyone figured out how to make them work and start implementing from papers.

This gave me a semi-chub that jumped a couple of times.
I'd make the logo
Every process runs in its sandbox. The only moment when they can access the storage outside of their sandbox is through the open/save dialog. So no malware is possible and no antivirus is ever needed.
Every software is "portable", no installation shit. So if you reinstall the OS for some reason, all your software are still there on your disk right away, even if they are old and disappeared from the web.
The web browser is HTML only, page size is limited to 1MB and no third party javascript is allowed at all. Webapps can ask the user for permission to be opened though.
And for there is no useless shit at all in my OS, it starts in less than four seconds, weights less than 200MB, really 0% load when idle, and runs smooth even on a 486.
It's also compatible with all these old Android 4 tablets people don't use anymore, because I don't like wasting electronic.

Yes.
Linux or OS X.
Winslop is unusable
yep, can confirm. No wonder linux broke 4% margin about 2 months ago.
white mans os
Linux with a proper working, mostly bugfree UI like W10
>modern
lol nope
micro(nano?)kernel targeting the Uxn ISA/Varvara fantasy computer, and no it doesn't have an MMU or any rings, and yes stacks are based
Walled Garden FOSS.
Rethink everything.
Systems level programming language comes with it. It is also easily interacts with GPU compute.
With a nice Aero aesthetic ofc.
arch but all windows software is natively supported
