On the other hand, pf is cross-platform, running in Solaris and FreeBSD. That carries some weight.
I have seen the Linux kernel migrate from ipfwadm to ipchains to iptables to nftables, and this has involved occasional reworking of some simple firewall rules from time to time.
On those later occasions, I did admire pf.
- toast0 3y agopf may be on all those platforms, but pf rules are not cross-platform, because different platforms have different rule syntax and different capabilities.
