Shrine (Github)

Shrine is a fork of TempleOS. Let's not get into the interesting story of how TempleOS came to be. If you don't know it already, you can read about it, or not. Shrine is a fork that mainly gets rid of all the religious stuff but keeps the unique approach of how things are done in this OS. I'm not sure what other changes have been introduced in the fork. Development seems to be stalled. But it definitely is an improved version from TempleOS. There's a lot to say about this very different OS. I'll leave it to a few points: The only screen resolution is 640x480 and it has a text-based windows UI. Everything is very C. It's written in C, config files are C code, commands on the command line are C code, ... Keyboard shortcuts (as well as everything else) don't follow any existing convention. Everything about this OS seems unique and different, or at least alternative. I'm not an author of C stuff. So I didn't get much done in the time I tried Shrine. But I bet it's an interesting experience for others, even without contributing code. I wouldn't be able to use it with all it's blinking and moving title lines because of a lack of space (pixels).
