>A desktop system for creators that focuses on simplicity, elegance, and usability. >Following the published Human Interface Guidelines, and First Principles of Interaction Design liberally re-interpreted for today. >For mere mortals. Welcoming to switchers from macOS. Not just a theme. Not a clone of anything, but something with which the long-time Mac user should feel instantly comfortable. The latest technologies, without the complexities of Linux distributions. Without lockdown. Without Big Brother. The user in full control. >Based on FreeBSD. Wouldn't it be hilarious if we got the year of the BSD desktop before Linux?

FreeBSD coders run their BSD in a MacOS virtual machine. In a reversal of this, now someone tries to make FreeBSD look like MacOS. What made MacOS feel like MacOS (till it became shitted post-Snow Leopard) was the cohesive design of it. Not sure a BSD can emulate this. It is not only the menu bar and dock that make MacOS MacOS

There's another similar project in the works that appears to be more geared towards your average desktop user: https://ravynos.com/

>>6830 >Wouldn't it be hilarious if we got the year of the BSD desktop before Linux? Sorry to sound negative, but cloning the Mac's design (which I quite like btw) won't set the world on fire. Linux is plenty usable and has reached a 'critical mass' of support (more programs, more hardware) that makes it the go-to alternative.

>>9222 freebsd can run loonix apps pretty effortlessly, a well-designed freebsd desktop distro modelled after macos could potentially wipe the floor with most desktop loonix distributions

Was playing with hellosystem in a virtual machine a while ago and I'd say it's got some potential. I'm looking forward to seeing where this project goes in the future for sure.

>>9232 What's that, the window buttons are arranged like classic Mac OS. I like that. But then they should have made it look like classic Mac OS all the way.

>>9233 It's funny because older versions of hellosystem had the exact same button layout as OSX. Guess they felt they wanted to change things up a little and be "different" in some small way.

I'm really hoping either this or ravyn os becomes daily-driver ready soon because basically no loonix distro (that's still around) has ever delivered a good mac-like DE.

I wish macos clones where more common tbh
