OP has probably never run FreeBSD and is likely commenting about an article they read a while back. I’ve run a sever for years and it’s been rock solid. Hardware support is not as good as other BSDs. Most people dont jump on the release candidates and incorporate them into their products, like PFSense did. One big exception is Netflix.
Not to mention the developer who did that seems like an absolute piece of work.
> The Macys' attempts to force their tenants out included sawing through floor support joists to make the building unfit for human habitation, sawing holes directly through the floors of tenants' apartments, and forging extremely threatening emails appearing to be from the tenants themselves. The couple fled to Italy to avoid prosecution but were eventually extradited back to the US—where they pled guilty to a reduced set of felonies and served four years and four months each.
- inductive_magic 4y agoThat's not entirely right, I did run FreeBSD for a while and understand why people value it. My current understanding is simple: the smaller audience allows for flaws to be overlooked through internal dynamics like social proof. Like I said, I'm not an infosec guy, all I can refer to is a somewhat informed gut feeling. A comparatively small audience which is convinced that it belongs to the "good" group is inherently vulnerable, the article just made some of those dynamics visible.
