Linux too mainstream for some 🤷
(sh.itjust.works)
How is Fedora not there?
I'm on NixOS where do I fit
That's a new concept... should be somewhere between Linux admin and Hoodie IMO... or maybe before Linux admin.
On the hidden "Do you believe that everything should be defined as code?"
Do you "see the matrix"?
I'm actually curious what BSD provides in comparison to Linux. What does it add, do better, or worse?
The only thing I know is that they introduced some stuff way before linux did, but that's simply due to the age. BSD jails for example have been around for a long time. Buy beyond that, it was never apparent to me why linux took off and BSD didn't.
Bsd is a complete package and tested as such. All the software and everything. It's like windows, when it's released you install it and you get wordpad, edge, calculator etc. Bsd is the same that way. Linux is just a kernel, with the distributions bolting on the gnu software. I know it sounds kinda the same but it's not.
Also the license. With Linux I think you need to cite it's use and you can't charge for something build with it (of course there's exceptions, like packages you create do not need to be for example), but bsd license is the most permissive. You can charge a customer for it and dress it up however you want.
No systemd.
There's some other stuff too
You don't need to cite, you need to provide source code. The point of GPL is to allow the user to inspect and modify the software. You can even sell it as long as you provide the modified source code under the same license.

FreeBSD is too mainstream, I use 9front
Wherefore art thou Fedora? Et tu Rocky?
I use Void Linux because I don't have too much free time (for figuring out all the little moments with configuring something more automated like Debian for my laptop, or for compiling stuff in Gentoo, or for micromanaging Slackware).

The menace of those who run kali as a daily driver for the lulz
whats that at the end?
FreeBSD. It's the new logo, the old one was with a little devil with a trident.
