It's such a pity that the 32bit version is open source and the 64-bit version proprietary.

The open source alternative is KolibriOS.

My understanding is that Kolibri is a hostile fork of Menuet, and that Menuet's author closed it in retaliation.

Open source software can be forked, that's how open source works.

To me, as an outsider to these projects, making the 32-bit version open source and the 64-bit version proprietary feels hostile.

How many years should pass until it doesn't matter if a fork was "hostile" or not and only open source software remains?
