- There have been a few FreeBSD derived OS's over the years, some stay, many others fade away - in an almost all cases I have covered them.
In this series, DeadBSD's, we will be revisiting those long gone BSD's....and see what we missed out on.
First up, FuryBSD from 2019-2020....

FuryBSD is what got me into FreeBSD, once the project ended, I rolled up my sleeves, maned-up and did a TRUE freeBSD install w/ xfce desktop DE.
I remember FuryBSD using the same idea that was used for FreeSBIE back in 2007. It was a eye-opener for a lot of people that thought Linux had the monopoly of Live Distros. FuryBSD was a great product that unfortunately was dropped and we were left wanting. Great video, mate. As always.
Thank you!
I remember FreeSBIE! I may even still have the cd/dvd I burned it to.
I truly miss PC-BSD. I really think they had a good thing going.
They did....it was a shame.
Yeah, PCBSD was a fairly tight system, but they went way too long between releases when they tried to retool a huge amount of the backend stuff
On the bright side, when one dies another takes its place. Hyperbola GNU/Linux Libre will soon be HyperbolaBSD. They forked the OpenBSD kernel and are in the process of migrating all the userland utils.
Cool... didn't know about this one.... thanks for the info :-)
Dear Mr Nuggie, I must say that I enjoy your videos and often follow your advice. In fact, I found your channel after I decided to install FreeBSD to metal and use it as my main driver about a year ago. However (and speaking of dead operating systems, i.e. OpenSolaris), I like living dangerously, so over the last week or so I installed OpenIndiana Hipster 2024. I like this Unix variant as much as BSD (perhaps more given that it recognises my NVidia card out of the box), despite its severe shortcomings in the desktop arena. For example, installing software via the standard pkg and 3rd party repositories was like trying to pull my own teeth out. Not because it's difficult, but because most apps are as ephemeral as butterflies in spring and encumbered software like MP4 codecs are simply not available in this latest iteration, don't work or both. I was hoping you would review OI in a video. I would love to hear your thoughts.
I'll put it in the ideas list, but it will be a few months from now as I can't do audio on new videos for the next few weeks, but I'll definitely have a look :-)
Thank you. I used it extensively last night for actual useful productive work. I installed Libreoffice and the Gummi LaTex IDE with Texlive and Rubber backends using pkgin (not PKG) and it worked flawlessly. Overall a very stable system.
@@RoboNuggie Thank you. Looking forward to it.
R.I.P.
Thanks for the video Christopher ! I liked the wallpaper with the little fury demon in the road...but, I've always been a plasma KDE desktop guy myself.
Thanks Jeff!
Great

I'll never forgive the PC-BSD team for shitcanning their project for TrueOS and then dying a few years later.
It's a shame because I think it had the most potential. FreeBSD hardware support is miles better now than it was back when TrueOS was still active and I would've also liked to see Lumina get more development too.
@@genblob PC-BSD 10.1 was my first exposure. Right after PKGNG first launched and all the unique PC-BSD package managing stuff was rendered irrelevant. Even so? I just appreciated the *hell* out of having a BSD userland as a casual Linux user who wanted to experiment more but still have a functional system.
GhostBSD comes quite close, but PC-BSD had my heart with how they went full KDE. MATE is a good environment, and honestly, GTK+ is the preferred toolkit for most FLOSS applications anyway. However, KDE will *always* be the BSD environment of choice for me.
I was a little confused because I thought you said it was KDE but then later it was clearly XFCE. Anyway, interesting to see this. I'm sure there will be several more episodes in this series, unfortunately! But, it takes many failures before you have a success!
I sometimes have no idea what I am saying (or doing for that matter) :-)
Pour one out for the project that lasted 1 year. 🤷♂️
