OpenBSD is well known for security, netBSD as a premier server platform while FreeBSD is a wannabe Linux maybe?

wait, what?
@mms
nah, FreeBSD's user (and developer) culture was and is kinda well-cultivated as well. I thought OpenBSD was well known for its release songs and netbsd is well known for being what you get normally on sdf.org.

May not be true now but when i seriously looked at going to a BSD after getting fed up with Fedora 8 years ago that's what my digging around found.

OpenBSD is probably seen more of a prominent player now while NetBSD is still well thought of since then but FreeBSD is pretty underground with Google throwing up more than one person asking about good blogs or podcasts if you search "FreeBSD"

Still a decent OS

@yeti @mms Hey maybe calling certain BSDs cults while tagging them all, is not the best solidarity building exercise.

@mms No idea, I can't even tell these free BSDs (and the others) apart.

But hey, I'm a Linuxer, so I have an excuse ;-)
