I've been working on a personal project called SAFE.OS for quite some time.SAFE.OS is a completely offline desktop environment focused on privacy and security. The goal isn't to replace Windows or Linux, but to build a self-contained workspace with integrated applications.One of the main ideas behind SAFE.OS is that everything you do stays local. There are no servers, no cloud services, and no accounts. Your data remains on your own device, and everything created inside SAFE.OS is encrypted, providing a high level of privacy for offline use.So far, SAFE.OS includes a password manager, encrypted notes, media tools, multiple code editors and IDEs, PDF tools, Paint, and I'm now starting to add games like Minesweeper.I'm documenting the project through devlogs because I enjoy sharing the progress and getting feedback from people interested in development.If you're curious, here's the latest devlog:https://youtu.be/QKj5JuXEw8kI'd love to hear your honest feedback. What feature or application would you add to a project like this?
>>109412877Ok but if I'll be offline anyway... What's the point?
>>109412877Ok but what's the benefit over me just not plugging the lan cable in?
The idea isn't just to disconnect from the Internet. SAFE.OS is designed so that there are no background services, no cloud synchronization, no accounts, and no server dependency. Everything stays local and encrypted by design. It's more about building a self-contained, privacy-focused workspace than simply unplugging a network cable.
>>109413002Ok and if I permanently remove the network card on my laptop?
>>109413002Anon you are retarded, come up with better vibecoding ideas.
>>109412877>an english-speaking frenchDUDE holy fuck, you're rarer than a fucking unicorn.How the fuck do I learn french? I transferred to France because my parents did. It's so fucking hard. People see that I can't do all that pronunciation stuff and start pretending to not understand me even if I'm using the right words.Should I just kms?
>>109412877Anon, I won't be like the other faggots, I like your idea and I say go for it.BUTThat's not a devlog, that's a showcase. A devlog would be you explaining shit about the code, show some of it, show yourself developing something, shit like that.
Thanks, noted.
What you're trying to achieve can be accomplished very well if not ideally by using a custom Linux distro with the networking stack not compiled into the kernel. Since Linux is only a kernel which doesn't require networking you can tune the userspace apps to not need networking and not have any clouds whatsoever. However simply air gapping a machine doesn't make it instantly secure and unhackable (as e.g. Stuxnet showed) if you wanna have an comepletley offline without the cloud OS you might be interested in tuning OpenBSD or Qubes OS to your own needs.
>>109412877Cool idea, left a like on your video.
>>109412877>SAFE.OS is a completely offline desktop environment focused on privacy and security. The goal isn't to replace Windows or Linux, but to build a self-contained workspace with integrated applications.AI slop? Or did you build it yourself, anon? Which platform?
>>109413091Quebecers are like that too. Why are the French universally dicks when it comes to their language?
Anonyme Zero AI, it's an offline encrypted desktop environment developed entirely by a human who loves the old days.
>>109412877Pot github repository please>Inb4 its closed source lmao
>>109413091Sorry to hear you moved to afrifrance, I wish you luck
>>109412877what a monumental waste of time and man hours. I bet you wear programming socks.
>>109415867What are programming socks you dick sucking gorilla black as midnight gape lover
While you're wasting your time raging on a forum, others build projects from scratch. Keep crying.
>>109414586They spend all that time remembering letters that dont matter when they spell. Really goes to their heads.
Cool, I want to get around to playing around with mezzano again, an OS written completely in common lisp with bits of assembly probably for the bootloader
>SAAR.OSSorry mr jeet I don't know the required cow dung and bovine piss to install it on machine
>>109412877Based vibeGOD creating stuff
Thanks to those who get the vision. To the rest, keep consuming your connected soup. The code continues in silence.
For those asking about the point of a minimalist environment compared to a standard setup: the whole idea behind SAFE.OS is to pull the rug out from under aggressive telemetry and the classic attack vectors of bloated operating systems. Everything runs in an isolated local sandbox, with AES-GCM encryption handled directly at the native cryptographic layer, zero metadata leaks to the outside.Zero background ghost processes, zero hidden network connections, no shady kernel phoning home to Redmond or Mountain View. Your local data is encrypted on the fly, and when the session closes, the volatile memory is cleanly wiped. It's basically a hardened, disposable workspace that runs locally without leaving a single trace on the host machine. What's your alternative for working or storing sensitive notes on a third-party machine without trusting the OS?
>>109412877>Cool! Bro fist bump. I will be following your progress.>>109415910>While you're wasting your time raging on a forum, others build projects from scratch. Keep crying.Exactly! Ignore the naysayers.OP, Write what you want/like, not what others think you should. For example: I wrote a text editor. So what if it's been done to death hundreds of times? I did it anyway. I learned things and I use it every day. No forced updates or COC's on *this* program! :)
>>109412877Isn't this just like installing and running encrypted Linux like debian in a virtual machine?
Anonyme No, because a virtual machine completely depends on the host OS and the hypervisor. If the host is compromised, the VM is too. The idea here is to have total control over the environment, strict isolation, and a native cryptographic layer (AES-GCM) without dealing with the bloat and attack surface of a general-purpose OS and its hidden services. But thanks for the question, it's exactly the kind of comparison that helps clarify the approach!
>>109412877Osdevchads rise?Nice project you have there, anon, how long did it take you? I'm on the 6th year of working on my OS. Everything is custom-made, except the icons.
>>109412877Where's the Doom port?
