We are all impressed by an obscure open source OS. Plus your feedback about duplicated effort by app devs, ignoring the modern web, Flathub confusion, a positive way to view of the FOSS future, and more.

First Impressions

We had a look at Haiku, an open source OS that’s “inspired by BeOS, is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.”

Feedback

We mentioned a couple of Flathub bug reports and a new frontend preview.
