Haven't finished watching the freebsd at netflix prezi because reasons. Wondering what the security implications of bsd with zfs are given it records a checksum with data. Can't quite get my head around how the file system works - no volumes or partitions! Apparently there is a lot of freeBSD code in OSX. And yet the BSDs suffer from lack of developers.
@helgztech YMMV, but at least for me the main showstopper is hardware support. No WiFI, no trackpad (I tried in a laptop, and a quite old one FWIW). No easy porting drivers and stuff from Linux, apparently because licensing collisions... But I've had FreeBSD and OpenBSD in VMs and they're really nice to play with. If I had to fire up a server, I think any *BSD would likely be my choice. :)
@helgztech That's what everybody says, until it's too late to get out the 🐇 hole. 🤪 Just a suggestion, but if you can spin it into Gnome Boxes, at least the VM part will be piece of cake. But don't worry, plenty of challenges ahead! 😆
