Can it run Doom?

Everything can run Doom

Never used but from the screenshots i've seen it seems to have a classic feel to it that i kinda dig

Oh, I think I saw a youtube video about this. Can't you rotate the windows and stuff? Really neat.

Why should I use Haiku OS when we have Linux Mint, ParrotOS, Arch Linux ?

Never heard of Haiku OS, but it has to be better than FreeBSD: or FreeBS CJ (= Chicken Jockey)

I really want to get into Linux, but the problem is that some of the software used in College aren't compatible with Linux. I tried dual-booting earlier this year using Ubuntu, but I soon dropped it after less than a month, because I wasn't having a good experience. I could only partition from what I remember 60GB(?), which limited me from actually using Linux at its fullest. Maybe soon once I get a 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD replacement for my laptop or a 512GB SATA SSD, I might get back and try Linux once again.

I dual boot for music software and it works reasonably well. Agreed that disk space can be a problem, I’d like to upgrade too. Linux is just such a better desktop experience that it justifies the effort to me.

I want to use Haiku regularly, but it's purely a curiosity still. Hardware support probably won't ever match Linux (which isn't a fair metric, but it's an important one), and important stuff like hardware graphics acceleration isn't ready for primetime. Software support isn't that bad. Overall stability has become much better over the years, but it's still not rock solid and it will probably still be years before it is.

As for the good bits, the interface on Haiku is miles ahead of pretty much every Linux DE (admittedly, a large part of that is because the default file manager/shell is actually code that was open sourced from commercial BeOS), and they've kept everything incredibly lean and mean to the point where Haiku is still snappy on 2005 era systems.
Nearly nothing whatsoever actually requires you to touch a command line, but it still has robust POSIX support so you can do command line stuff if you want.

It's so close to being something I would run daily, although I would probably want to buy another machine than my desktop to run it on (probably some mini PC) if I truly decide to take the plunge.
There is work being done on a Nvidia GPU driver port of the official open source Linux driver, but until that's actually done, I kind of want my GPU to not be a paperweight.

Is it any good for nu-linux users? I'm still using bazzite

You are getting this late and not from OP but I have spent a lot of time looking into different operating systems. Haiku is not a Linux distro and it is just good if you want something simple and dont have any programs you need to use other than basic ones. If you want something more niche than Linux but still has some software to choose use a BSD based system like GhostBSD. Has worse driver lacking than Linux though.
