UPDATE: While using BSD you got two options: 1. Stay secure by not using ports and sacrifice software availability 2. Install software and render your system vulnerable to exploits and mitigation crashes
Daily reminder that BSD is an insecure garbage. It doesn't have softwares in its official repos, which makes people use ports. Ports are maintained by a group of basement dwelling neckbeards and software vendors do not audit their compile scripts.
Software vendors provide precompiled binaries for Linux with checksum, but they don't do the same for *BSD.
Furthermore *BSD has a very limited driver support. Even if some device manage to run, the drivers crash due to aggressive mitigation. This is why your laptop turns into a room heater when you run X-org on BSD.
BSD desktop environments are poorly put together. Many desktop environments are developed with Linux in mind. For example Xfce, GNOME, Cinnamon or MATE uses udev for automounting external storage. BSD doesn't have udev: automounting will not work on BSD. I knew this first hand when I tried PC-BSD (a variant of BSD) few years back. Now that GNOME and other DEs are slowly moving to newer technologies like Wayland and Systemd: BSD is and will always remain crippled for desktop use.
Just for the record, I'll let you in some secrets: almost no printer/scanner and bluetooth devices will work on BSD.
Overall my biggest beef against BSD is its philosophy. It claims to be "secure" but its "secure" version has NO softwares. Use ports and it is no longer BSD team's fault that you used "insecure" 3rd party softwares. What a joke!!
Bottomline: 1. Linux fights with Windows in terms of usability while BSD can't even compete with Linux. 2. BSD has no softwares and drivers 3. BSD offers NOTHING practical to be used instead of Linux.
If you are using a free operating system, use one that's usable for desktops. Don't use a router OS (while Linux beats them in routers as well).

Why does BSD attracts cucks so much?
>Use BSD license Companies steal code, closes it off and tells you to fuck yourself
>BSD User-Developer experience Literally get hacked by own Project leader :^)
>Placebo security Un-audited ports, Nothing else runs in BSD without ports
>Compatibility Some BSD cannot even have non-free codec packs. Not many proprietary software and drivers run on *BSD, specially OpenBSD. Many Realtek and Broadcom devices will never run because of its non-free only drivers.
>NO active development Except for PC-BSD, there is no live *BSD desktop. OpenBackdoor removed Linux compatibility AND WINE. BSD market share is not rising.
>Less softwares than Linux Cannot even perform Vt-d virtualization on windows guests. (Good for nothing). Behyve is miles behind KVM/QEMU.
>Community Non-existent. Few buttflustered autists that mostly comprise of mactoddlers (OSX is BSD :-DDDDDD). FreeBSD is actually getting better though. I hope PC-BSD catches on but their primary goal is to fight own BSD counterparts' autistic community.
>Documentation FreeBSD wiki has a good documentation but lacks contents.
>OpenBSD OpenBackdoor is specially the meme of BSD community. It;'s a freetard BSD (Not even freetard Linux, that's less autism). No ZFS, no MAC, no jails, no non-free drivers, no non-free codecs, no non-free softwares, no Vt-d virtualization, no Linux compatibility, no WINE, project leader is a hostile autist that never grew out of teenage edge, no security in ports, non-existent community.
I am aware that many people use OpenBSD for nothing more than a router, and for this it indeed ideal. For the use of a router, extended access controls would not provide much benefit. I wrote this argument however because many people seem convinced that OpenBSD has suerior security in all instances and including as a network server or user operating system.

I feel like BSD was dying until all the hobbyist OS's started getting killed. Now it has this annoying crowd of assholes that cling to their "kind of obscure" and not at all necessary Distros.
Just let BSD pull its plug and let it go away peacefully. Stop dragging its lifeless body around. This isn't weekend at bernies.

Then why does Whatsapp use FreeBSD to run their botnet if it's so insecure?
Elijah Roberts
Because whatsapp doesn't need daily-used packages aka unaudited ports

Hey guys I'll post with my trip for a bit here

Why won't PCBSD or FreeBSD or OpenBSD boot on my spare Mac Mini even after I picked the right architecture?
Christopher Richardson
Glad to know you are posting from a web server
Caleb Miller
???
obviously you don't know that to run a web sever in freebsd, which whatsapp does, requires the ports collection
Same with both a DVD and USB. Even with REFInd/REFIt. I get something saying to pick option 1 or 2, and I can't pick either. If I hold 1 down, while booting, it shows that I pressed it, but doesn't respond.
Hunter Butler
The only reason why someone would be this rabidly against OpenBSD is that they would prefer that the security advances that are typically pioneered by OpenBSD and then spread to other operating systems not happen.
Just something to think about.
Brody Cook
An important distinction should be made here.
Most of what OpenBSD does is not pioneering. What they do is mostly find some sort of idea from somewhere else, they implement it, and force their users to use it. These users then act like lab rats pretty much. It's a pretty good idea.
Dylan Kelly
yeah some guy is mad because people made BSD threads so he started making BSD threads "ironically"
Angel Morris
Why would I want to use BSD when better alternatives like Linux and Plan9 exist?
Alexander Russell
plan 9 is literally dead
John Long
To take an idea and to implement and test it is pioneering. Ideas are simply ideas until this shit happens.
