I specifically bought hardware for OpenBSD, I like the OS a lot but it is not my daily driver. I reported something incorrect on their website and was responded to very quickly with oh, you spotted that too soon that's correct on the next release, that was really good in my view (what I was doing was fairly niche, it was maybe 1-2 days before what I noticed was no longer relevant.).
I also have FreeBSD on a RPi3b, just to have it around. FreeBSD has tells that there a many fundamental things that should have been corrected years ago, tip of the iceberg. I reported a bug (258863) and provided a workaround, there was momentary interest then it was forgotten. Their forums are incredibly insular, cult like in that whatever the foundation or developers decide we side with 100% (no one overtly says as much though).
For most things I use "Linux" (Debian&Ubuntu mostly), 20+ years now. Change for the sake of change is modus operandi for the "Linux" world for some time, then that's perpetuated as it tends to attract developers that enjoy that. systemd is awful.
Wayland. I just lack interest in it. I'm not pro X either just can't be arsed.
Most people things it's a competition between various Linux Distros or BSD Flavours, I'm quite happy to use them for what they are.
- anthk 4y agoOpenBSD is not like FreeBSD at all.
- tux2bsd 4y agoGiven I didn't say the opposite what were you getting at? Is it a random statement just tagged on because OpenBSD and FreeBSD were mentioned in the same post?
- knorker 4y agoYeah, systemd is a perfect illustration of running, coding, and shipping code before thinking. Or, in short, "Lennartware".
