I used FreeBSD on my last laptop.
Here are the things I liked:
- all applications that I needed to do my work on windows or mac or linux were available.
- native encryption of all the file systems even /boot and even /root and even / through geli on top of zfs. This is super easy to deploy through the installer. Seriously.
- it also offer native compression of file systems through zfs. /var/log, /home, etc
- there are tons of stuff like easy to compile custom kernels, rebuild the world, etc, but this is just me being a geek.
What I didn't like:
- there is just one thing that really turned me off. I was never able to properly configure a wireless interface with also the ethernet connection. What I'd like is that if both are connected that it prefers ethernet then switches to wifi if I disconnect. This should be done by default without fiddling around. I had to use some hacks and it turned me off.
I'm very tempted to try ghostbsd, but before I do so, I'd like to know whether it's possible to have dual network connections: ethernet + wifi with preference with ethernet and smooth transition when I unplug network.
Can anyone confirm whether dual network is flawless in ghostbsd?
