Personal computing on an Amiga in 2021

Solene created a week-long personal computing challenge around old computers. I chose to use an Amiga for the week. In this issue I write about my experience, and what modern computing lost when Commodore died. I also want to show some of the things you can do with an Amiga or even an emulator if you'd like to try.

I've tried to get into the Amiga-like operating systems - MorphOS, AROS, Amiga OS 4 - but the platform just doesn't suit me. I find them convoluted, incomprehensible, and frustratingly difficult to use. Not that it matters - I'm not here to ruin the Amiga community's party - but if they want to sustain that community instead of having it die out as their user numbers dwindle due to old age, they might want to consider making their operating systems a little less... Obtuse.
