From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

been using it for almost a year now.
it's been 18 years full time linux/bsd for me and it went knoppix -> ubuntu -> fedora -> arch linux -> gentoo -> freebsd -> void
arch linux in 2008 was really good, and lasted for a couple of years. gentoo was a chore, because it's fully source based. freebsd is rock solid, amazing amazing system, i would be still using it if it weren't for aec applications and games. still using it on my homeserver.
void is blazing fast, highly reliable rolling release package system, amazingly simple init system. i have a 3060ti and it's working surprisingly good on wayland. it's just hassle-free for me, i love it.
Did you used FreeBSD with wi-fi? Any issues with It? Any other consideration about It?
yeah, with wi-fi. i didn't have any issues using wifi. like i said earlier, some applications don't have freebsd versions and manually compiling and keeping them update is a lot of hassle. other than that highly reliable system.
Nice I'm eagerly to try OpenBSD and maybe FreeBSD sometime.
