Are you curious? 9front is nerdy as fuk. I totally recommend giving it a whirl.
FYI … 9front is useless. Its a programmer’s toy. An OS enthusiasts challenge.
How is it different? It’s GUI-native. In order to run something, you use ‘mouse chords’ to draw a terminal window, and then you can run stuff in that window. Last time I used it I started to learn acme, the editing environment, which required more mouse chords. I poked at it for a week or so and moved on.
