Redox looks like it’s up and coming, hopefully something useable pans out from it once cosmic is rolled out of alpha.
Microkernel is an uptime and security benefit on modern hardware.
I would be happy if something usable comes out of it. OTOH, the classical problem is and has always been driver support. I am not sure I like the plan of running a complete Linux as a subsystem for driver support, and I have doubts Redox will have native drivers for all hardware within the next decade.
