What is the perfect OS, /g/?
Does one exist?
It was called Windows XP.
And it was Good.

A GNU/Linux distribution with the GNOME desktop environment. (When GNOME no longer needs third party extensions)
Windows 8.1
Debian 8.

That would be WES7

everything comes with their upsides and downsides from a variety of different factors, there is no "perfect" OS and there never will be by virtue of every large software project turning to shit one way or another given enough people and enough time
The most perfect Windows iteration is 7. The most perfect gnu/linux iteration is Fedora.
The most perfect MacOS iteration is on fire in the dumpster where it is lighting a dumpster full of Macs on fire as well.

At least it has a non-stupid name, unlike Windows POSReady.
>>58429096
LOL no, you must be underaged

Any OS that comes with a vulnerability like that is not perfect by any definition

The new OS Google is creating from scratch seems promising. I don't give a shit about muh botnet, I just want a modern OS.
Basically every OS right now is some code from the 80s that had been polished and the UI made pretty, but they're ancient turds deep down to the core.

Linux fork

Do you have any proof of your claims?
If not, be ready to go to prison for many years

Not really.

The only 80's operating system still kicking around is OSX and the BSD's. Windows NT and Linux were both relatively modern creations of the 90's.
Do you have anything concrete that you would have liked to see in a modern operating system that would be enabled by something more modern, or are you one of those javascript kiddies that hate old and battle-hardened codebases?
>>58430957
>Windows NT and Linux were both relatively modern creations of the 90's
oh wow!
they're not from the 80's! they're from the 90's!! sooo modern right?
>>58430976
You still haven't said what would a more "modern" operating system would have to offer.

The OSs we use right now were created when computers had mere kilobytes of ram and processors ran basically in Khz too. Any dumbphone nowadays has more power than Supercomputers of the time.
MUCH of the code has remained basically untouched and completely optimized for the hardware that is currently available. Creating a OS for today's hardware would make computers a lot faster and efficient.
>>58429091
Windows 3.11 and Windows 2000
Everything else was a mistake.
>>58431138
>optimized
unoptimized*
>>58431138
You're retarded
>>58431138
b-but macos was created from the ground up!!
>>58431220
thank you
>>58431138
>code was optimized to be super fast on 1980s hardware
>therefore it must be inefficient and slow on modern hardware which is several orders of magnitude more powerful
>>58431354
1980s hardware didn't have multicores and a bunch of stuff new hardware has.

People have different needs. Some OS's work better for some people than others. Same with text editors, programming languages, computers, phones, etc. But /g/ will always have unoriginal debates that change no one's minds and only serve make people feel superior to other people on the internet just for using a certain product.
Jk, arch is the only good one.
