Every single time I see something related to BSDs, I think the same. How tiring...
For more than a decade, every single thing related to BSDs has been largely irrelevant. Every. Single. Thing.
Nobody cares about that, the only thing BSDs had was their license (vs. the GPL), and that's not entirely clear to have been good at all for the ecosystem (because, clearly, Linux has enjoyed a much greater development). Nowadays, even in embedded it's either Linux or RTOS, nothing like BSDs at all, so the GPL is clearly a non-issue.
- sturob 3y agoDo you use openssh?
- ladyanita22 3y agoYeah, I have used it happily on Linux

- cempaka 3y agoI laughed, thanks. Do you think the parent also makes use of containers?

- timc3 3y agoYou clearly need to learn more about BSD. They have a lot to offer, including the community of people that maintain and work with them.
- ladyanita22 3y agolike?
- saagarjha 3y agoJust because the BSDs see low use doesn’t mean the ideas they have have similarly low influence.
