haha
Yeah.
good luck with that
haha
Personally, I can't much stand copyleft licensing and try my best to avoid gnu/linux
it's funny
in the early 2000s, i used Debian a lot.  then i moved to Gentoo for about 10+ years.  switched a lot of stuff back to Debian for the upgrade simplicity.
to me, FreeBSD isn't quite as easy to upgrade, especially if a port has issues
pkg install $package is pretty straightforward and works for most stuff unless you need different params than were used to build the pkg
and freebsd-update is easy as far as updating the system itself
isn't the other headache a lot more rebooting?
