Consider that virtually no software developers nor hardware manufactures are routinely testing against reactos.

In a way, itвЂ™s easier to have an independent project where you make the rules. Its basically a miracle that we have anything as good as linux is on the desktop now.

Yeah, I havenвЂ™t used it recently, but it does seam that stability and compatibility with the latest software is the biggest holdup.Д«uilding an operating system as complex as windows is not easily done with a volunteer army. I would use it with the current ux, if it were possible to do so. In some ways it was a lot like ubuntuвЂ™s unity, you either liked it or you didnвЂ™t, haha.Д«ut as said down thread, the ux is a dumb thing to focus on as the stability is terrible.

Now rather than uniformity and standard controls for things like titlebars, scrollbars, menus, etc, youвЂ™ve got programs that are hard to identify, hard to use, interfaces that are harder to discover, and a decrease in information density apparently in a bid to satisfy touchscreen users. If I could cherry pick some improvements (like task manager), I would gladly take those, but on the whole I really feel like microsoft threw away the book on UI best practices. Obviously we all have different opinions. Its the best one Microsoft has ever done. However, itвЂ™s reassuring to know that a project exists with the goal of eventually replacing proprietary Windows.ДЄre you kidding? *I* would love for the ux to change. No-one is expecting you to migrate from Windows to ReactOS yet, and that day is many years into the future yet. It is buggy, and it will get more buggy before it gets better. Whilst stability is ReactOSвЂ™s main flaw, i think itвЂ™s giving them a great disservice to criticize the project just because itвЂ™s buggy. Since ReactOS is cloning a very complex proprietary OS from reverse engineering and public documentation, itвЂ™s a bloody miracle itвЂ™s as stable and Windows-compatible as it is. Most of the instability is caused by either non-existant or incomplete API/ABI implementation. However, system stability in ReactOS is a much harder goal to achieve. Remember that ME bombed because it was an unstable and clunky mess, not because itвЂ™s UI was particularly bad. Everyone wants a stable system, and it pretty much core to any product ever released. вЂњsystem stabilityвЂќ isnвЂ™t really a вЂњUser experienceвЂќ component. ThatвЂ™s what I mean by вЂњuser experienceвЂќ, not so much the design of the interface. A system installed on FAT with no user separation in place is a nightmare in terms of data security. This, in my experience more often than not fails.ДЄnd of course, you should offer at least basic security.

One of the big selling points for Reactos over WINE is that you would be able to install and use proprietary drivers. This I havenвЂ™t seen changing in many years. I am talking HW like a dated Fujitsu esprimo desktop computer and a Dell Latitude E6420, dated 2013. Most of my attempts to do so reproducibly fail, even though I donвЂ™t own new hardware. Second, you want to be able to install the OS on real hardware, not just in VirtualBox. It quickly happens that your system is rendered unbootable and there is no easy fix short of wiping the partition and reinstalling. With ReactOS, the BSOD is never far away. There are some things about the user experience that most definitely need to change, first of all the awful instability.

It does have a few issues that XP doesnвЂ™t have such as memory reclamation not working quite right in some software like FireFox (try downloading a several GB file and ram use will creep up probably due to file cache or something but it goes right back down if you pause downloads, last I checked it doensвЂ™t break if you download a file larger than memory anymore something is just still wierd with file cache or something). I think the main problem they have at this point is it is still an uniprocessor OS, which XP was *always* a multi processor aware OS and designed as suchвЂ¦ I even ran XP on a dual P2 from 1997 for awhile, not an ideal machine for it but it worked.ДЄmazingly it is also very ram efficient, it will boot with 56MB in a VM, and booted with more like 256MB it might have more like 50MB resident at the desktopвЂ¦ granted you canвЂ™t do much with only 64MB as swap doesnвЂ™t work well but itвЂ™s very close to what you would expect from XP.

It is much more stable than it wasвЂ¦ *much* as as long as you arenвЂ™t attempting to run software developed very late in XP SP3s life like sayвЂ¦ firefox 52 then it mostly works.
