    I love reading through Absolute OpenBSD and Absolute FreeBSD. This man makes learning BSD simple.

    As a FOSS fan and someone that tried half-a-dozen linux distributions, I am feeling attracted to {Free,Open}BSD because I've heard of the culture around it values a cohesive system, and takes care of providing a central source for (at least) the foundational knowledge (perhaps more, I haven't delved into it).
    If I manage to switch to a BSD system, I'd gladly pay regularly an organization for keeping the operating system and documentation coherent, cohesive, complete. It saves me a lot of time.

      Not just the backend though; FreeBSD has been used as a base for many successful end user products, like PlayStation and Nintendo consoles, not to mention the high amount of FreeBSD and OpenBSD code and tools that are in macOS/NeXTSTEP and all the derivatives like iOS

    OpenBSD sets my fan to 100% and there's no way to turn it down. I tried every suggestion. Very noisy and thus unpleasant to work with. FreeBSD used to work well on my laptop but 12.1 gives me no sound. Weird. Also tried every solution. So, for the moment I'm back on arch where everything just works.

    I'm a linux user(Gentoo and Arch), i thought to move to BSD but the lack of documentation available compared to Arch or even Gentoo is what scares me. For example, in my Gentoo i have everything passing through Tor, all my connections however i don't find the documentation to do this in BSD. Opinions on this ?

      It seems as if you can use *BSD for a Tor Relay. :) They are very Network-oriented, among other, different things. :) Why, I'm told that Nintendo uses the *BSD Network Stack to power their Client-side Software that accesses their Servers. :)

    Unfortunately, linux is being developped very in every aspect. It is getting many bleeding edge features while being unix/linux with very large application base. Kernel has many wonderful capabilities which led to many tools that caused distription in the industry like cgroups, dockers etc. Bsd just can not keep up. It look out og date out of box. Even though some people complaining about it, systemd is a great asset for system admins.

    • @JanuszKrysztofiak
      @JanuszKrysztofiak ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, systemd is actually a good thing, its inspiration Apple's launchd. It integrates with cgroups, dbus, allows user-level (non-root) units, is able to launch services on a wide range of triggers and so on. Its haters seem to forget we are no longer in the 1980s and 1990s.

    2010, no remote console, no virtualization? Did he miss speak? AIX had lpar in 1990s, x86 server class systems like ProLiant had RIB then iLO cards, Integrity also had those for hp-ux for remote console, I think hp-ux also had some virtualization as well. Virtualization came around in 1999 in x86, became mainstream by 2004. Xen was there for Linux then KVM came into being by 2008. Unless you deployed your servers on desktop class systems, 2010 was pretty good for remote control/console and very much for virtualization, regardless of the OS you ran.

      I think he meant that it wasn't mainstream and probably his employer at the time wouldn't use it. My employer only started in 2012 for example.
