que digo?

Just responding to say I love your username OP lmao

debian stable with backports and flatpaks will get you up to date software and a very stable base

I have to use it at a job. It’s awful, the ads on windows 11 especially.

could always get a used pixel…don’t have to buy directly from google and recycle a phone that might have been thrown out otherwise

I liked LEAP when I tried it a couple of years back. They’re getting rid of it soon, and I don’t really like rolling releases so probably won’t try anything SUSE any time soon.

started with ubuntu in 2008, moved to debian a few months into it. Tried other distros at other times, but the stability of debian keeps me coming back to it. Plus I like the fact it’s a community distro

same

you mean chimera using BSD utils instead of gnu?

no fundamental differences between net and freebsd?

Debian stable.

NetBSD didn’t fork from Free iirc. They took 4.4 BSD and started developing it themselves of the net.

Theo de Raadt was kicked out of netbsd, and started OpenBSD.

you’re more likely to find BSD communities on reddit, each projects mailing lists, freebsd forums, and unitedbsd.com (which is a great forum, although not too active).

No, but I think someone made read only support for ZFS available on OpenBSD. Freebsd is obviously the best for ZFS. It works on NetBSD too.

NetBSD, from their own website:

The NetBSD Project’s goals

A project has no point if it doesn’t have goals. Thankfully, the NetBSD Project has enough goals to keep it busy for quite some time. Generally speaking, the NetBSD Project:

provides a well designed, stable, and fast BSD system,
avoids encumbering licenses,
provides a portable system, which runs on many hardware platforms,
interoperates well with other systems,
conforms to open systems standards as much as is practical.

In summary: The NetBSD Project provides a freely available and redistributable system that professionals, hobbyists, and researchers can use in whatever manner they wish.

Based on the name of have assumed it’s be used in things like network appliances but in 20 years I’ve never seen a single device use it.

The name comes from being develop over the internet, when that was still a pretty new concept. It’s pretty popular among Japanese ISP’s iirc.

If you’re at all interested in unix, you should try NetBSD. Open has security as a focus…although some of that is overstated imo. FreeBSD is clearly targeting servers, even if it is all purpose.

NetBSD is less popular, but it’s clean, lightweight, portable, has pkgsrc. Think of Net as a cross between Open and Free.
