Most of these points are debated in Brendan Gregg's "Solaris to Linux Migration" blog post from 2017: http://www.brendangregg.com/blog/2017-09-05/solaris-to-linux-2017.html http://www.brendangregg.com/blog/2017-09-05/solaris-to-linux... The only point of Brendan's that I don't agree with is ZFS as it really doesn't have a strong competitor (yet). Thankfully, it also doesn't need to be on every machine - my desktops/laptops/deployed servers are treated like cattle not pets. I love FreeBSD/OpenBSD's simplicity and principled design, but I've sadly relegated them to specific purpose servers at work and at home because I kept hitting enough speedbumps that IMO preclude them from being used in a more general sense.
