- wkat4242 2y agoI went the opposite way, I went FreeBSD as I found the commercial Linuxes getting too opinionated for me too. Ubuntu constantly pushing their snaps, RedHat pushing things like systemd. And in general just the huge commercial involvement into Linux. Almost everyone working on Linux works for one of the big tech names. I decided I wanted to make my own choices and definitely don't want any commmercial involvement. I miss how Linux was when it was really a grassroots project without any commercial agendas. I tried alpine and Amelie linux for a while but I wasn't too happy with them either. I'm quite happy with FreeBSD on the desktop. There's some issues with WiFi and Bluetooth but I hate laptops anyway. I only use NUCs and there I have everything wired. Besides that it works perfectly and I can set everything the way I want, and still run a full KDE. ZFS on root is amazing and the ports collection is really great. But you do notice it is maintained by a handful of people only. Really good people though! Not saying that I'd recommend it to anyone else but for me it's great.
