It is usable only in a VM, sadly.
If you like to hack around and enjoy playing Diablo 1 on obscure software, Serenity OS is for you :)

It seems to be at least somewhat capable of booting on metal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sT-ME3PsKtc

I can't but wonder how nice it would be if ported to ARM devices. If Linux can run on $15 small boards with much fewer resources than big PCs, this much lighter OS could literally fly.

People are actively working on Arm support!

LXQt with a retro theme may do it. The project reached version 1.0 at the beginning of this month.
I'm pretty desperate for an OS UI that looks like this. KDE comes close but still too modernized.
Would love to try Serenity on a laptop some time. Anyone know how usable this is as a daily driver?
