Very tangential, but Amiga has been a recent fascination of mine. I've been playing with a few AROS distributions in QEMU; a part of me wants to take the plunge and run it full time as my primary operating system, but the lack of a decent web browser is a pretty hard limiter in 2026. I guess my brain has sort of fetishized the platform; I didn't grow up with an Amiga, but I did get to play with one when I was a kid and I always thought it seemed cool, and as a grown-up who roughly understands how operating systems work I do think it was somewhat ahead of its time. Yes, I realize that there was a lot wrong with the design as well (e.g. no protected memory and programs being able to modify each others pointers), but even still I think it was pretty neat.

It's fun to think of the alternate universe where Commodore had been competently managed, and we wouldn't have the codified mediocrity of POSIX driving everything today.

It would be hard for me to justify the time sink, but I would like to port over the most recent Firefox/IceWeasel and bring Amiga into the 21st century.
