  • I will absolutely look into this. Thank you :) definitely looks like I'll be opening source though. I didn't realize there were already so many FOSS alternatives. Suppose I should have done more research, but I guess I figured they would be more popular/ talked about on platforms such as this.

  • Link doesn't work for me, but I'm starting to see what you mean.

    Either way, this has been a fun project to work on and I've only been working on it since around October, so not like years of commitment or anything. I've learned a lot, even having been programming professionally for years, so overall I'd say it's been a worthwhile venture, especially considering I originally was only building this for myself.

  • Oh damn good call haha.

    I guess I never bothered to check. I'm not married to the name so it's no big deal really. I was initially just building this for myself without any real plan to release anything so I chose my artist/producer handle and never thought twice about it.

  • Interesting 🤔 I've never heard of orb. This is the second similar project I've gotten responses about. I honestly had no idea anything similar even existed. Why are these not more popular? I can see a million different use-cases for apps such as this.

    That being said, I tried the orb demo and support on mobile was terrible. I'm aiming to have it be fully touch/mobile supported.

  • Wow I honestly had no idea something like this already existed! Never heard of ArozOS before.

    Why is it not more well known/discussed? I can see a million different use-cases for a web-based OS. I would have thought it would be the first thing people would talk about for a self-hosted solution to a os/frontend.

  • Truly appreciate the feedback!

    I am definitely leaning open source, but to be completely candid, I could also see this being a marketable product. If I could somehow turn maintaining this into my full time job and quit my current job without any significant drop in my salary, I would be completely stoked.

    To be honest, I'm not super familiar with licensing or really anything regarding the release of software, but I would like to maintain the possibility that I could eventually sell/monetize it if it turns out to be a success, and I'm afraid that once it becomes FOSS, that possibility is gone.

    Like I said though, I honestly have no idea, so I would love any feedback or suggestions.
