I remember following Haiku (I think it was originally called OpenBEOS) right from the get go.
I used to read updates on its development progress about it on OSNews. It looks like all the posts of the Haiku's progress going back to the early 2000s are still on the OSNews site (https://www.osnews.com/topic/beos-derivatives/page/19/). I think I gave up on following its progress (or lack of it) at around 2004.
I liked BeOS a lot... in the late 90s and early 2000s... I may still have the BeOS installer floppy (can't remember if there was also a CD in the package) somewhere in my basement. Haiku is definitely not something I would use today, but I'm still glad they're still making forward progress.
