ah yes, an obscure OS with no software for it, so the only thing you can do is write hello world shell scripts in some generic-looking editor lacking a lot of basic features, or browse the web in an outdated version of firefox

and let's not forget the slow security fixes for bugs

what the hell do people use this for?

I had a phase when I was a teenager where I used alternative software and listened to indie bands and stuff simply because I wanted to be different. It had something to do with an illusory superiority complex and equating popularity with mediocrity. So some people will shun popular OSes, popular browsers, frameworks, programming languages, IDEs, etc. and use weird shit, even if it's objectively worse, because they think it makes them smarter or "in the know" or something. They want to feel like their life has meaning and that we aren't just living useless lives which will be forgotten after we die.

Special snowflake syndrome.

What do you think they should use instead?
