       Change the target OS that V tries to compile for.
       By default, the target OS is the host system.
       When OS is `cross`, V will attempt to output cross-platform C code.
-      List of OS supported by V: `linux`, `windows`, `ios`, `mac`, `freebsd`, `openbsd`,
-                                 `netbsd`, `dragonfly`, `solaris`, `android` and `haiku`.

+      Here is a list of the operating systems, supported by V:
+      (CI tests runs on every commit/PR for each of these):
+            `windows`, `linux`, `macos`

+      The compiler is known to also work, and has support for these operating
+      systems also (although we do not test it as regularly as for the above):

+            `solaris`, `serenity`, `haiku`
 
       Note that V has the concept of platform files, i.e. files ending
       with `_platform.c.v`, and usually only the matching files are used in
