Slackware is what Linux used to be.
Cause it didn’t really change at all since the beginning.
Still the same structure under the hood, still comes preinstalled with twm (the original default window manager for X, developed in 1987), if you want it to look like it’s 30 years old.
The distro is even still maintained by the same guy who created it.

The last SLS release was in March 1993.
Slackware was released as a bugfix for SLS in July 1993.
Arguably, Slackware is the continuation of SLS under a different maintainer and name.pewgar_seemsimandroid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago

Haiku is not that bad as a production system. It has Qt, wireless drivers from FreeBSD, nice performance.
I mean, they are not aiming for production anyway.
