A video I made about "do less" tech products that should have been software for obsoleted hardware

I talk about an idea I've been throwing around for a while for a "typewriter OS" which boots an old laptop into text editor (as a starting project to hopefully lead to a [insert single purpose] OS)

It's a difficult thing to pitch because it's very easy to say "that's just X running Y" type of answers. But it's something I see as a ground up build by design.

Anyway, sharing to see if it piques anyone's interest

  • Just to add, this video doesn't say much about the actual idea in detail. I have plenty more to say about that. It is more philosophical groundwork to lead into an upcoming video about the thing itself
