As I se it, as long as MorphOS had the best webbrowser, it fealt like MorphOS was on a roll.
But since then, MorphOS has started to go silently into the night.
Really sad, I love MorphOS!
Webbrowser = the most importent software despite of platform.
I'm not certain.
The most performance intensive thing I do with the browser is watching YouTube videos.
That can still be done using OWB.
Other than that, what is lacking is:
- full IMAP support for emails.
I'm hosting my own Postfix email server including IMAP. I can't really use email fully with all features on MorphOS.
- MS Office/OpenOffice document format support.
That doesn't necessarily need to be LibreOffice. Some spreadsheet or text processing application would do. But neither is available.
And in fact I'm not sure whether that is more of a business feature.
When does someone send me a word document in private. I couldn't remember that.
Something like FinalWriter, TurboCalc, Ignition et. al. would fully do.
In the end, it's just a different platform. I mean, when I want to play Elite Dangerous I just can't do that on MorphOS.
It can't really compete with Windows, macOS or Linux.
But there is still something that makes this platform interesting.
