gollark: CraftOS, I think, is basically fit for purpose, since it lets you run your own programs without much hassle. It could use a package manager but it's otherwise pretty great.
gollark: Well, it has a GUI (which I don't like personally, but meh), a package manager, and many useful libraries and programs.
gollark: What do you mean "better"? I'm not convinced that any OS actually is really *better* than CraftOS for things people actually use them for, except possibly Opus, primarily due to its good bundled programs/libraries.
gollark: Maybe I should add a hint...
gollark: I was *surprised* by how many people somehow *did not get it*.
