Writing an os (even if a toy one) sounds like a better idea than writing the 6 millionth linux distro. Furthering the point it should not be the 6 millionth unix clone either.

It could be some experimental thing or outsider art or just a meme. Not every OS is meant to be a replacement.

Examples:
No one uses TempleOS unironically but it's interesting.
Practically no one uses Plan 9 but it had an influence on future systems.

Arch and or Artix, we can just piggy-back off of the AUR.

what exactly do you not like about base arch anyways. arch is already pretty stripped down and allows you to choose your own desktop manager and whatever so Im not sure what exactly needs to be customized or what even could be changed besides the packagemanager and initsystem

This is arch. Study it closely.

It should be LFS or something close to it. Or at least Gentoo. If we go for a pre-rolled existing distro we need to add a custom patched kernel with an added dummy function for us to call and write a BonziBuddy esque soy desktop assistant which calls that dummy endpoint so it will only work on our OS. It’ll be our killer app o algo

Also it should be called Yos (soY)

Make it so you have to type "Yes" or "No" in a popup window for every terminal command. "y" or "Y" are not accepted, neither is empty string.
