It's a little weird to not put some of these headliner features at the top of the list. Like ZFS (in-tree, on the default installer, without licensing issues or hostile team dynamics).
On the other hand there are things in this list which are just the FreeBSD equivalent of something Linux has in some form. The ports tree is good, and I like that you can customize options etc., and now pkg is pretty good, but are you really going to miss that if you have apt or similar?
- ianai 7y agoAren’t Linux and freebsd using the same zfs fork at this point though?
- asveikau 7y agoI am not following closely enough to know when that makes it into a stable FreeBSD release, but yes it will be. Except for one point: the zfs on Linux work is not in the mainline kernel, and won't be. A strict interpretation of your comment would actually be "no" - can it really be said that "Linux is using it" in that case? You need out-of-tree kernel support which is very difficult to maintain.
