Genuine curiosity from someone not deeply familiar with the details - what sort of operating systems fall under "Other" for desktops?

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 7 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Pretty much everything other than TempleOS. FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Haiku OS, Redox OS, Sculpt OS etc.

Imagine TempleOS for PH :) I'm not saying I don't think it happens ... but the irony.

Well, technically it's not possible since OS doesn't have network connection. At least unless someone learns C† and implements network connection into it. If Terry said it would be complicated, it's probably a hard task. :)

That's... something I wasn't expecting. :)

BSD, Haiku and pretty much anything that hides or manipulates the user agent string.
