Title: You've don't have to use windows
English has left the chat
True
I was’ve going to write that..

Doors are for people with no imagination.
You don't have to use Windows, but these aren't exactly recommendable alternatives lol
@@asificam1 from best to worse, Linux windows, chrome os, Mac os. Mac is the bottom of the ladder.
@@andrewyork3869 ChromeOS is a form of Linux.
FreeBSD definitely isn't for everyone, and hardware support can be a bit incomplete, but if you have a few hours to familarise yourself with the documentation, it is actually very usable as a desktop, and has support for wlan and NVIDIA binary drivers if necessary.
You don't have to use Windows in the same way you COULD wipe your ass with razor blades.

@@shinto29 Time for a TP run. Comment made me laugh. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
0:55 I think the part you should've mentioned as an answer to why ReactOS folks don't get sued is that two different people are involved in clean-room reverse engineering.
The first figures out how a Windows component works (reverse-engineering), and writes a specification (how the code should work), which *another* person implements in code. This is how it is *guaranteed* not to be a copyright violation, because the code writer hasn't seen any Windows code.
IMO, you didn't answer your question.
@Lucas Zhu No. Did you read my comment? What do you think the 'clean-room' part of 'clean-room reverse engineering' means? What you described is the second half, not the first.
Interesting trick, thanks for the explanation
LMG: "You've never heard of react os"
Also LMG less than 2 months ago: "HERE'S FAKE WINDOWS"
To me, that means they don't expect us to remember their own videos or at least the proper names of the things featured in those videos
that was some bullshit tho ngl, calling it a bootleg was very disrespectful to the countless hours thousands of developers spent trying to help find and alternative to microsofts near monopoly on the PC market.

He says they used clean room reverse engineering for ReactOS...then goes on to say the exact opposite of clean room (ie, they *didn't* look at the source code, they looked at the *effects* and figured out how it worked from the outside).
Sometimes for a clean room implementation you have two teams, the first looks at the software and documents the API, the second team implements the API
I was looking for this comment ! Up you go !
Yeah, the entire episode was a little cringe. Looks like one of those poorly written "list of [thing] you probably never heard of" article, I hate those. Plus BSD is the only family really meant to be used and, apart from Apple, even then is almost exclusively server world.
Poorly researched, badly written, extremely limited in scope, and awkwardly presented video.
Honestly, at this point might as well pick up a good Linux distro and just learn the environment.
Its really not that scary. I dove head first and dual booted my pc with Ubuntu about 3 months ago. its a great distro to get your feet wet and with a bit of reading/videos online you can easily learn basic terminal utilities and file systems. Not that it would be necessary, you can run ubuntu just fine without having to run something on terminal. The GNU desktop environment used on Ubuntu is a lot like android phones and it shouldnt take much of a difficulty to get used to. Linux, especially ubuntu is amazing for multitasking, distraction free, productive work environment. Just to be safe, you can always try it out before by running a virtual machine using vmware or virtual box or can dual boot it on your pc to use it alongside Windows. Linux distributions like Ubuntu and Arch linux have amazing community support. Virtually every problem youll ever encounter will probably already been discussed on the forums or you will get answers easily if you ask. Even if u tried and u didnt like it, the knowledge of linux that you gained will still be very valuable and applicable to things like web servers, android phones, macs, who all use versions of linux
Or just don't
@@Sandesh98147 I'd agree that Linux is superior but I feel like one of us is misinformed here. As far as I know, Mac OS is based off of Unix, not Linux (which is a Unix clone) and Ubuntu's default desktop environment is Gnome... I've never heard of GNU being used in the context of a DE. If I'm wrong, please correct me - I'm just curious.

I run ubuntu and fedora linux myself, but I ABSOLUETLY LOVE that you incluede hiaku os in this video. I grew up obsessed with computers and always wanted to go into software design, but my family felt that computers were a passing trend not worth getting into. I continued to learn c++, python, css, html, and js after highschool on my own. But a good friend of mine worked on Hiaku while attending RIT in the early 2000s. He also worked on the original Microsoft surface systems there. I remember him coming home from school and telling me about the features they wanted to incorporate and the capabilities of the system. When I first heard of microsoft surface, it was basically a computer built into a coffee table with a touch screen, some cameras to locate objects on its surface or touches from users, and gesture recognition over its surface. (My understanding is that there are some airports with this system in use today, and every time I hear about microsofts surface system, I get a small kick of excitement because I knew details about the system when microsoft was still developing it.). This video shook up some nostalgia for me and made me think of my old friends that I have not seen in many years.

Linux game support is leagues better than it was a few years ago, most games run fine, even windows only games run well in steam play. Long gone are the days when you had to have a second steam install in a wine prefix. I wouldn't recommend FreeBSD for gaming though, unless you like SuperTuxCart.

Actually covering the top three BSDs (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD) in their own episodes may not be a bad idea. BSD code is used in more places than one might think and you'd be surprised what the BSDs have given us over the years and nVidia still makes FreeBSD drivers. It's a good general computer sciency/geeky/history topic and there's tons of options for quick 5 minute episodes.
No one gonna mention the best one? TempleOS for the win!
Temple OS was made by a man named Terry Davis who apparently God told by god to create an operating system, which he finished in 2005, It shares some similarities with DOS.
The OS had some *amazing features, such as 16 bit colour, a 640x480 resolution and even contained apps like a flight simulator and a compiler.
Unfortunately temple OS stopped getting updates on 2017 and Terry A. Davis later committed suicide in 2018.
RIP TEMPLE OS!!

My tablet does 99% of what I need online, so yeah I haven’t needed Windows in years except for some legacy tasks on occasion.
Which concludes you are not a computer user i.e. your opinion about Windows has no value. You’re just browsing the web and reading e-mails. That functionality exists on any device up to fridges.
@@Engineer9736 Note "legacy tasks on occasion" above for the times I do use Windows, generally for software that isn’t yet available on mobile, or for the few tasks that may just be more convenient to do on a PC. And wow, your info on tablets is way out of date, as my tablet does a whole lot more than e-mails and web browsing. With an optional physical keyboard, even spreadsheets are a breeze on tablets. And of course I’m writing this while watching another TH-cam live stream from my tablet without issue.
The conveniences of not being anchored to an outlet often and being able to quickly fire up my tablet anytime and carry it around anyway far outweigh the very few benefits that PCs have anymore. But to each his own.

1:47 One of the things the Be folks were quite proud of was that their OS was completely PowerPC-native, with no backwards-compatibility emulation layer. Their original “BeBox” PC ran dual PowerPC 603 chips, which were the low-power ones that Apple only used in laptops. But BeOS was efficient enough not to need top-end 604 processors (like MacOS did) to achieve useful performance.

@@mealynnkraffel1334 WebOS is not Linux at all. It may have some of the GNU stack in it, but not Linux. It's not derived from the legacy Palm OS either. Palm bought BeOS, turned it into the touch focused WebOS. When Palm went under TCL bought their hardware business and LG bought their software IP. By the time LG had it fully featured enough to put it on a phone they weren't embarrassed by Android had completely taken over.

I also ordered 100+ Ubuntu 6.0 CD's back in '03 and gave them to kids at school.
What I like about Free BSD is how you can basically install it on anything. I installed it on a Pentium 3 960 Mhz machine not to long ago with XFCE and its very usable with 512 Mb ram. While TH-cam and google docs won't work using light weight desktop applications and web browsing works...
Oh, come on! You guys even said in a past episode how lame ReactOS was for daily use!
It could be useful in a VM. Really the only reason I don't have ReactOS installed on at least a test machine is it currently doesn't have USB support. Once the USB code is usable, I think it could actually be useful on real hardware. The main reason for this is that it can't be installed from USB media because if the lack if USB support, and s lot of modern machines lack an optical drive.
@@themotivator2587 Don't hold your breath. ReactOS has been in development for a very, very long time and is still practically useless. Personally, I don't think this will ever change. At least, not in our lifetimes.
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.
love seeing this copy/pasta in the wild haha
Preach it brother
You forgot the: "I use Arch btw" part
“On top of the operating system is the rest of the system software. Here we find the command interpreter (shell), window systems, compilers, editors, and similar application-independent programs. It is important to realize that these programs are definitely not part of the operating system, even though they are typically supplied preinstalled by the computer manufacturer, or in a package with the operating system if it is installed after purchase. This is a crucial, but subtle, point. The operating system is (usually) that portion of the software that runs in kernel mode or supervisor mode. It is protected from user tampering by the hardware ...”
-- Tanenbaum & Woodhull, _Operating Systems Design And Implementation_ , third edition, page 3
That is the well-known “MINIX Book”, by the way. So you see, by that definition, Linux is very definitely an ”operating system”.
Maybe call it gnu linux systemd os then?
4:08 that joke came so sudden it gave me a good chuckle. Hahaha well done 😂
What sort of alternative dimension have I walked into? Techquickie doing videos on obscure OSs. I love it!
the issue with using other OS is that microsoft has everyone making software for it. right now if you want to play a game or use a software usually it goes "does it support linux? mac? oh... just windows? when is it coming for my OS?... okay I will get windows because I need this software to game/work"
You can play almost all major games under linux without any problem and other with some easy workarounds (usually this games have problems on windows too). The only exception is the windows-only online games with heavy anti-cheat games.
@@ilyacheladin1 that's actually wrong. there are plenty of games with windows only dependencies that will not run under WINE or as you are alluding to proton. it heavily depends on the game, and frankly i wouldn't be surprised if they start building in "if (os not windows) exit();" into the games. I for one wouldn't want you to be running my game on an unsupported platform, so i would build in checks to make sure you aren't trying to run it on linux macOS or hell windows if it's a build for linux or macOS. Game Companies are not going to support proton as that is one small section of the market that they in all likelihood don't want to deal with. so don't be surpised when they start trying to block that.
@@TheObsesedAnimeFreaks i don't see the reason to code a check for windows, why would you turn down free revenue? I can sort of understand multiplayer games but not single player.
I do game programming on linux then ports them to windows with minimal effort.
@@TheObsesedAnimeFreaks I'm very interested. Can you provide some examples?
I know professional software, that have problems with running under wine, but not games.
@@TheObsesedAnimeFreaks Why would you purposefully deny people to run your game on an OS they like? The people who try to get your game running on Linux are tech-savvy tinkerers who are used to have software that is only written with Windows in mind, and still trying to get it right. Why be so cruel and purposefully implement a block? That is the thing that tech tinkerers hate the most, just illogical barriers that don't have to be there!

I wouldn't recommend ReactOS to actually install on bare metal to replace your current OS but it's definitely an awesome project. I use OpenBSD and Linux mostly.
I also find it funny there is a typo in the title and mispronounced "FurryBSD" in the video.
Haiku is worth trying out in a VM. It just feels different. It might be the lack of lengthy animations but it feels fast and responsive, like a high-end Windows 98 or 2000 system.
I loved BeOS when it came out! Definitely trying out Haiku in a VM soon.
Literally everyone has heard of FreeBSD.
well, not even "literally everyone" has heard of Linux or even Window, soo...

@@masterguddu6913 haha but really, everyone knows what freebsd is.
@@zamundaaa776 ok fine, most "sort-of tech-knowledgable" people do.
@@cidsx I wouldn't even say most... depends on the definition of "sort-of-tech-knowledgable". Some know a bit of stuff about the next iPhone that will release and consider themselves "sort-of-tech-knowledgable" just based on that.
Many definitely do though.
Jokes on you, I've heard of all of these operating systems and have installed and used half of them before.
"FuryBSD" damn it Alex I died at the Brooklyn 99 reference
Been happily using FreeBSD on my Ryzen workstation. It’s my favorite environment for sysadmin/software development work. And bhyve is a great hypervisor
The way he's constantly and intensely staring slightly up and to the left from the camera is a bit unsettling.
hmmm yes, it's almost as is there is a teleprompter there. hmmm almost...
Technology connections guy has a video about teleprompters, maybe buddy there needs a mirror.
Your timeing I was looking at the OS market share and I was wondering what is free bsd
Edit : I kinda remember about free bsd
If you are a developer searching for a secure OS designed on L3/L4 microkernel research for your single board computer... you really need to get interested in Genode OS. Their toy SculptOS, is a ... about 25 Mb USB image, that is able to connect to Internet, show relations between components in a QT GUI, allows to install a tiny window manager, an open GL rotating thing... a small text editor... a small terminal (Noux)... that's about it. You will probably not be able to install these stuff without reading the documentation! F12 key toggle the GUI! Well... ideally for developers ready to learn about capabilities... but in a state ready to begin porting POSIX applications. Maybe it is worth to say that it support mostly just VESA and Intel display driver (i915).
I'd love to see a video about disc operating systems, such as MS-DOS, OS/2. You could also mention that there are modern OSs for use on removable media (NomadBSD).
*~>Is there a different alternative OS that you're interested in?*

Clean room reverse engineering sounds is just a fancy name of that meme “change it up so the teacher doesn’t know you copied”

On the retro side you can use ether DOS (there's a modern DOS-based OS called FreeDOS) or OS/2.
But on modern (Can be a Linux OS other than something like Ubuntu or Pop OS) there's Elementary OS, Zorin OS and Android-x86.
And these are not the only OSes other than Windows, MacOS or various version of Linux like Ubuntu or Pop OS.
As soon as i heard FreeBSD I expected a mention of FreeNAS witch I use as an NAS operating system. i was not disappointed. I don't like the problems with realtec nics but it's still incredibly good.
I thought we'd be going really obscure like Cosmos, DahliaOS, and eComStation.
Also the haiku is invalid.
eh, eComStation isn't that obscure, it's just continued development of OS/2, which runs on what is basically the NT kernel anyway. the most up to date version being under new ownership yet again, and being called ArcaOS afaik
FuryBSD (with 1 r) is not pronounced like FurryBSD
no shit sherlock
While not an x86- or AMD64-based OS, RISC OS is pretty interesting. I haven't used it, so I don't know what software is available for it, but I do have a Raspberry Pi Zero, so I'm considering trying it out one of these days. Given that it's likely that ARM is now the most common processor architecture used by consumers (rather than servers), RISC-based operating systems might be a worthwhile video to do, particularly since Apple is set to transition away from intel-based processors to ARM for all their laptop and desktop machines. It's pretty interesting that the majority of consumer devices run a processor architecture designed by a British company that likely would not have succeeded had the BBC not chosen their computer for the BBC Micro in 1981 (an incredibly interesting story in its own right).
4:19 lol I recently tried my HDDVDs again, almost all of my WB titles will not play due to disc rot.
i kinda have heard of those operating systems tho...
just use linux mint. it is faster than windows and more reliable. everything works. its laptop frendly. it detect all hardware automatically. for ordinary internet desktop users, you don't need to install drivers or anything. its taken care of by linux mint, how ever you need to customize it to make it like you want it to be. everything can be adjusted after install. you can run wine and old windows apps on it. you can run steam on it. every aplication you ever needed on windows is available fro free on linux mint. if you wan't somthing better than windows 10 and hate updates, linux mint is for you.
Agreed, I'm pretty new for Linux and had little experience with some distros. I've gotten a near decade old laptop that runs very slow on windows 10, installed an SSD and Linux mint (Cinnamon) itself and it ran like new, plus very easy to use.
"Everything works" is a bold claim to make. There are very diverse machines out there, and all Linux distros I've tried are hot garbage on my laptop. Good for you that Mint works on your laptop.
I use and work with Amiga OS4.1 FE and MorphOS 3.12 which are both worth mentioning.
Remember when this video's thumbnail featured logos of actual Windows alternatives?
"You've Don't HAVE To Use Windows..." The Title of this Video (at least right now).
Haven't heard of the others, but wait... never heard of FreeBSD? Among tech enthusiasts, I'd say many people have heard of FreeBSD lol
You forgot to look for those "Laser Disks" as well :P
I’ve used two Linux distros: Tails OS and Raspbian Buster. Sadly not the OS featured in “Community” used by Dean Pelton...
