I am currently in the process of migrating my own servers to FreeBSD. So far it's a slow process to learn these new tools, instead of what I am used to, i.e ip addr/route show, iptables, nft list ruleset and different default directories for many things. Can anyone report how is Wireguard support? Since I am using it heavily, there is no way without it. So far it looks like only thing I am going to miss is qemu and will probably skip VMs at all and try to utilize jails for everything. Apart from that I am really looking forward to utilize ZFS.

Wireguard has kernel support now. It was originally a botched implementation that almost made it into the kernel but it was rescued by Jason Donenfeld himself at the last minute. But in the end the rewrite was better for everyone. Ars has a good writeup: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/03/buffer-overruns-license-violations-and-bad-code-freebsd-13s-close-call/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/03/buffer-overruns-lice... As far as I know it's been merged back into the mainline kernel now.
