True, but thats the role TrueOS is attempting to fill. They're like the early days of Ubuntu where the whole goal is to create the most user friendly experience for the operating system, making it a great gateway-distro to the rest of the eco system. The more tinkering-focused users can go upstream to FreeBSD.
I actually prefer to start with a blank slate and tinker but the TrueOS people keep coming out with these awesome features that are making it hard not to switch.
- X86BSD 10y agoI agree. Truth be told the older I get the tinkering has lost its luster. I just want to get Sh%5 done. I don't have time to keep reading mailing lists and commit logs the first half of my day anymore to keep up on all the hacks, tricks, knobs, comments on HW etc. I just need to get things done. I think Ill kick the tires on TrueOS this weekend. As you said it seems to have some awesome features that would make my network/deployment life easier than stock FreeBSD.
