I have very mixed feelings about this article. If you want to run a non-standard operating system (all the BSDs combined have about 0.3% market share according to https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/os-bsd https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/os-bsd) then more power to you, but it should be unsurprising that most OSS developers prioritize bugs or features that impact more of their user base. I applaud the author for their "I'll port it myself" mindset though.
At the same time it does feel like there ought to be a more standardized way of converting packages between operating systems. I look forward to the blog post for next week where they detail how to get it all working.
