No multiuser support :(
No ability to lock the screen :(
No integration with today’s web services :(
It was a great os 10 years ago but the freshness has worn off. Love the windowserver tho
There is already POSIX multiuser support, so you can create non-root users and SSH into them, but unfortunately this is indeed not integrated into the GUI yet.
You can definitely lock the screen, at least, though...?
Not sure what you mean by "integration with today's web services." Our WebKit port could still use some more work, but a lot of the modern web is at least functional.
It is still in beta. It needs help and developers to push it to a modern OS like Windows or MacOSX.
Bruh, redux is more modern than haiku these days. Beos was not as advanced as we like to think it was and now it’s really starting to show. Reactos is in a very similar state.
Haiku is not BeOS, but a continuation of it. Under the hood, the internals (especially the kernel) are very different from BeOS', to say the least...
