FreeBSD is very nice for a well controlled and stable desktop. I use it on desktop since 2005 and did not yet saw a Linux distribution that would provide the same 'zen' experience. Especially with ZFS Boot Environments that make you bulletproof for changes and upgrades.
Maybe my guide will help you to start with FreeBSD desktop:

- GekkePrutser 5y agoYes your site was one of my references when I started with this. Many thanks for writing it! I had used FreeBSD as a server in 2006 or so but moved off it as I moved from colo to VPS at the time and it wasn't supported. So it was off my radar for a long time. But it's really a great OS for the desktop for me.
- vermaden 5y agoGood to hear that someone finds it useful :) Feel free to ask me directly if you will face any problems with FreeBSD - just use the 'contact' on the blog. Regards.
