Always an interesting project and some great achievements, but it’s hard to see it being more useful than Linux + Wine (or now Proton)

Does anyone use ReactOS in a production-like fashion?

Drivers exclusive for Windows.

You know your old Soundblaster AWE64 Gold, with all bundled programs [0]. Or that very special Analog Video grabber card you have.

Wine is user space. This is the full OS.

[0] Ok, that maybe works in linux, but you get your point.

Not yet but it seems like they've finally started working towards that. Driver compatibility has improved dramatically over the last few years, for one.

Do they finally have a WDM compatible driver stack? For a long time, that was their biggest hamper to being anything useful as a real desktop.

If they can pass that hurdle + add WDDM, I'd be willing to take another look at them even if application compatibility remains hit and miss.

Last i tried it a couple years ago, it was basically impossible to install natively. (On basic intel haswell system)
