There's always GNU/HURD, if you want a little compatibility
It's a good question what I really want. I'm very satisfied with my current system (NixOS) but in the end it's still Linux and stuff like the 9P filesystem just intrigues me. So it's not like I'd need to switch or anything. But a playground to apply the concepts to some problems would be nice. Maybe I'll try 9front some day and see what I can do with it
Indeed. A fun little project but unfortunately it doesn't seem ready for any sort of daily use. Driver support (a crucial component) is probably pretty scarce. Their web browsers too are hit-or-miss, with one in particular (Links) that crashes when performing a during Google search.
Still, there are few alternatives that differ substantially from the original ancestral Unix that are available and more should be developed. GNU/Hurd and the BSD's are the only ones I know of.
