RavynOS Finesse of macOS. Freedom of FreeBSD

I vaguely recall reading about a project trying to achieve just that on HN a while back. Unfortunately, that is all I remember about it. Back then, it apparently was not quite there, yet, but that must have been at least five years ago, so the situation might be a lot better today.

Unfortunately not. Darling [0] is still at the point that it can only run command line applications. Only the most basic GUI applications are supported. That's still a massive accomplishment that I don't want to diminish, but it's nowhere near the point that WINE was at even quite a long time ago.

I would imagine with Wine the number of people interested to see Windows applications run under Linux/BSD/etc is significantly larger than with macOS/Darling.
