I started my real computing journey with FreeBSD, and there are lots of things to love about the BSDs ecosystem (despite how firmly superior I think GPLv3 licensing is), but honestly I haven't been keeping up with them. I do remember that the underdog I have been rooting for is DragonFlyBSD, which has taken some novel approaches to the network stack and filesystem, etc.
It used to be, freebsd on desktop, openbsd/netbsd on devices, Solaris on the servers. These days though I think you might be in for a bit of a shock in the differences between the mach kernel Macos and current BSD land, especially depending on your use case. Can you elaborate on why you are considering this, and what your normal use is like?
