On: Show HN: Redox Rust OS – v0.3.3 release

[cies]

> I'm also curious about the benefits that redox offers vis-a-vis bare metal Linux (Alpine/Void etc)?

Security (Redox' stems form the language, Linux' stems from being widely used). Hackability (smaller, more modern, more hackable language). Simplicity.

> What are the potential areas where Redox could be beneficial ?

To put apps on VMs with a very tight and secure OS underneath.

And/or, maybe even better, with the GenodeOS team?
