You could try VanillaOS 2.0 Beta which is a Debian-based immutable distro, planned for final release later this year.

That’s kind of true, but MacOS and Mac OSX are 2 different things

Then Windows 3.0 and Windows 11 are two different things, so by that metric you can't include Windows either.

all the way from 1991 to 2024, I think the only other OS that has managed that is Windows

It's easy to forget about MacOS when it only has 15% desktop market share.

Operating systems that started before 1991 that are still in active development (had a release in the last 12 months):

• Multics (1969-)
• MVS (1974-) via OS/390 (1995-) -> z/OS (2001-)
• VMS (1977) via OpenVMS (1992-)
• BSD (1978-) via 386BSD -> FreeBSD, NetBSD -> OpenBSD
• HP-UX (1982-)
• SunOS (1982-1994) via Solaris (1992-)
• MacOS (1984-)
• AIX (1986-)
• RISC OS (1987-)

Almost made it:

• Minix (1987-2017)
• Genera (1982-2021)
• AmigaOS (1985-2021)
• NeXTSTEP (1987-1997) via GNUStep (1993-2021)
• IBM i (1988-2022)
• SpartaDOS (1988-2022)

but it does make me happy to see articles condemning their moves almost every day

Did you read this article? It's a pro-Microsoft article published on MSN (Microsoft Network).

This is great! Some feedback on UI:

• The first thing I did was click ⇩ on a post and it prompted me to log-in. This is confusing because I thought I could train the recommender without having to log-in. It took me a minute to find the "Like/Dislike" buttons because they require an extra click to open the post menu. Maybe make the Like/Dislike a bit more prominent and accessible, and find a way to differentiate between the controls for training the recommender and the upvote/downvote actions on the post itself. Or even better, make them the same thing so there's only one pair of controls and if you're not logged-in then upvoting just boosts the recommendation but doesn't actually send the upvote action to the post.
• Please use actual links (<a href=""></a>) for post navigation so that I can tell my browser to open a link in a new tab. Usually I middle-click to do this (in Firefox) but since the post title and content only respond to javascript events, I can't middle click to open in a new tab. Clicking the post opens it in the same window.
• Add text content of posts, or at least a button to expand the text content. Right now text posts are just the post title and I have to click through to read the content.
• Add alt-text (tooltips) to your buttons. I know what the standard share/bookmark icons look like but it helps to have tooltips to be sure.
• Add a link to open the original post (on the origin server). Every fediverse UI has this. If you have it too, I couldn't find it.
• Allow me to see (and drag) the scrollbar of the main content frame.
• Add a refresh button (maybe at the top of the feed) so that I can generate more recommended content without having to actually reload the page in the browser.
• When clicking a community name, I get the community page but I can't press the back button to go back to the feed.
• If I "dislike" a post, I don't expect to see it again after a refresh, or ever.

Also, it's a bit late to change it now, but the name is very 2009-internet-startup.

He was in the airport, remember. Not in a local market.

I lost my earbuds in a remote town in Chile, so tried buying a new pair at the airport before flying out.

...

True Apple lightning devices are more expensive to make.

...

I wish @Apple would devote an employee or two to cracking down on such a technological, psychological abomination as this.

He wants to take away a budget option from developing countries where people can't afford the expensive version of the proprietary technology, and he wants Apple to be the one to do it?

Fuck this guy.

Why not post your blogs to a fediverse platform? Do they need to be on a separate hosted system? You'll probably get more people reading and engaging with your posts if you are just posting to a Mastodon instance rather than hosting on a separate web platform and hoping that people stumble across it.

Google *had good search. It's been dogshit for some time now though.
