Not long after the fall of BeOS, the Haiku project came onto the scene to continue its legacy. And today we’re going to install and explore it!

The improved browser is a BIG plus. There was a rumor that HAIKU would be ported to the RPI 3 and 4, that may help HAIKU secure a "tiny system" market.
wow BeOS that's old I remember when it came out and I joined using it. Was amazing back in the day. Had no idea HAIKU was around.
Well, this week I got, very cheap, a Thinkpad X61 without an HDD or OS. Now I know what to run on it. Thank you.
Change name.
Do you know the meaning of it.
Haiku is traditional japanese poem.
Is there any relation with beos.
Do more windows development history videos.
I only poked around the og BeOS a little bit back in the day and I've been periodically checking what Haiku has been up to, but I learnt so much more about both of them from this video, I feel this is the best Haiku video I've watched yet! I'm thrilled at how far along this project has come! ❤
Do ye know if Haiku is theme-able?
Michael MJD is what real men listen to while they sleep
well.. I hear "modern browser" quite often. But displaying google is not really a benchmark for a modern browser. You could start a movie on netflix, prime, disney or whatever you have on hand. Those have high anti-piracy mechanics and only modern browser will play them in 1080k. Even some linux distros get errors there. Conquerer for example is not able to play Disney+
Awesome video, was legitimately excited to watch it.
Something you didn't mention was how app icons work in Haiku. Icons are vector images, meaning they can be resized to any size without losing quality. Windows .ico files on the other hand have multiple raster images of various sizes inside them. You can demo Haiku's images by right-clicking the desktop and selecting a size from the Icon view option, or just with Alt + and Alt –
An IRC client… does IRC even still exist?
Shame HaikuBeOS never really taken off. In many ways it feels way more advanced then its competitors back then and really nice even today. Linux desktop is a mess, honestly, every DE have its unique flavour of its creator stupidness (KDE going into "one to rule them all" combine while Gnome is "you are stupid, so we dumbed down all apps" way.Other DE have its own ideas) and when you mix apps from different DE and toolkits (and you WILL do that sooner or later if you really want to use Linux desktop, not just take screenshots of it) it will be even bigger mess.
This disk partitioning program is very similar to Gparted…however, all partitioning programs is more or less same, so maybe its just coincidence.
Yay
What I miss is mostly Wi-Fi (using a MacBook Pro 2010 13") or iPhone tethering, the later the better. Linux is horrible on this machine (trackpad driver gets randomly crazy which renders the system unusable) and FreeBSD drivers don't like this machine very much either.
I would like to see
A video on Haiku
Yes MJD please
this would be an excellent OS for my old IBM Transnote if it still booted.
I never used BOS this remined me of tab works for windows 3.11 can it handle Mutiple monitors?
For some reason I get serious Mozilla Vibes from Haiku
OK! Now do Syllable!
Best os ever.
I actually paid for BeOS way back when.
I would love to see another video of HaikuOS running in a proper quad core CPU, ideally an AMD one.
is there a way to install it on raspberry pi
As a former BeOS daily user (2000-2005) Haiku has kept me in the Be universe ever since I found out about it in 2017, a little before the beta released. When my family got our first 1GHz Athlon system in 2000, our K6-2 266MHz system became my computer and I tinkered with BeOS a little before completely switching the system over. I mainly played games on the newer, faster machine in the living room so it didn't need to do anything that required Windows.
BeOS did everything that I wanted and needed it to do at the time. It was/is sleek, fast booting and feature packed! I'm glad to see you doing a video on Haku after the BeOS video. I love your vids and keep looking forward to the next one!
you should review the hello kitty laptop
I wanted to see this video when you released BeOS video
The drivers and applications were ported from BSD because the developers didn’t want to reinvent the wheel and creating a modern operating system would allow Haiku to fulfill its true potential. This freed them to work on the Haiku source code and push forward with what BeOS should have been had it been continued as a mainstream desktop.
I actually like this OS a lot more than any Linux distribution I've ever seen. It's intuitive, it seems to be lightweight and doesn't try to be Windows nor needs to be. Too bad BeOS went the way of the Dodo, but this is something a company with big pockets should back in a world dominated by the legacy "everything" of Windows and the "My First Computer" vibes of MacOS.
When you said Replicants I immediately thought of Nier
Michael = 8 bit guy?
Haïku can run doom
This brings me back to the Windows 7 days…
YEESSS
Is it just me or does it seem like he brought back the floppy drive wall
I am thinking I'll take this thing for a ride on a couple of very low-end laptops I have kicking around for watching YouTube. (edit: typo)
cool video
Thanks for another great video buddy. Am currently throwing Haiku at a Atom netbook…. (dont ask about the BSD attempts… 😉 )
now do amigaos next 😀
"Hello everybody and welcome back to another video" has become an iconic youtube phrase, no doubt
Haiku operating system is very interesting
A haiku:
Open source is trash.
Closed source is always better.
Comments will prove this.
I really hope Haiku can compete with Linux distributions one day!
Hopefully it also becomes a viable alternative to proprietary operating systems.
