Hi there! I've been on-and-off working on TacOS for a few months, which follows some UNIX-derived concepts (exec/fork, unix-style VFS, etc) and is now able to run a port of Doom, with a fairly small amount of modifications, using my from-scratch libc. The performance is actually decent compared to what I expected. Very interested to hear your thoughts. Thank you!

Not being upvoted to the top doesn't mean downvoted. Your negativity is baseless.

Completely fair point.

I've vouched several green user comments in the past six hours that had been flagged and gone to dead for no apparent reason, the GP comment you spoke for was one that others had kicked to dead ( usually I'm flagging obvious spam comments straight to dead ).

The funny thing about meta comments is that they can change

Almost always for the worse - for instance now you have this pointless tangent hanging off a topcomment. That's why the site guidelines ask you not to do this.
