As for 3.9, the official distribution is so onerous, and the OS itself so bloated and incompetently implemented it doesn't deserve any better.
Incompetently implemented how? And as for bloat, it's about 10Mb or so without the extensive collection of WB backdrops and the optional internet software; that's hardly bloated.

OTOH I don't mind if people are discouraged from using it, because it means fewer software titles will be produced that require it.
So you seem to want everyone to restrict themselves to only using a crap 26 year old version of the OS, and force programmers to only target that version. You say "the Amiga should not die" but seem to be doing your best to kill it. As a user, why would I want to miss out on all the improvements made over the past 26 years? As a developer, why would I want my users to miss out on those improvements?
