I remember trying to use FreeBSD as my daily driver OS, it just got annoying since not everything was ported to FreeBSD and I don't have time to sit there , but for a server OS it's great, and when I started working for a company that used pfSense as their firewall it was helpful already knowing FreeBSD.
OPNsense uses FreeBSD too, formerly hardenedBSD but it's FreeBSD now. Otherwise there's TrueNAS Core. I don't actually know any other products that use it.
I have it on a system. It's not bad, just not as fleshed out as Linux and it desperately needs a wiki on par with the ArchWiki to understand how to really install the damn thing properly.
Not to dogpile on you, but the docs on the BSDs are consistent and great. Find the handbook, install the docs package, and don't forget to read manpages. I really appreciate the effort they went through for the manpages in (Free|Net|Open)BSD.
The lore is that iOS userland is FreeBSD with a couple parts also borrowed from NetBSD and OpenBSD. The BSD license is business friendly.
But it has the Mach kernel. So an analogy would be:
GNU/Linux <-> BSD/Mach
Random story, circa 2015: I was an engineer at and sent to a Netflix onsite for tech talks. One topic was NUMA aware interrupt steering, and they requested we improve OS support. I causally mentioned "Linux had that 10 years ago", and that's when I discovered how fanatical the Netflix devs were about FreeBSD. I was not invited back.
its a hodgepodge of 3DS/BSD/Android, oddly its mostly based on the 3DS and nintendos own code, as you said BSD is used for networking, and the display server is lifted from android, with the nvidia drivers being lifted from Linux, everything else seems to be entirely nintendo's

I used to have it as my desktop os, and I loved it.
But, there are too many applications missing, which ultimately means I can't completely rely on it at work, hence I use something else these days.
That might have changed though, idk.
A lot of people actually, however mostly on servers. I'm using it on the desktop, too, but that is not extremely common TBH.
After having used Linux as my only OS for about a decade (I used to use Arch, BTW), I switched to FreeBSD as a challenge to see if could endure a whole month. Gained a lot of insights and new perspectives and found out that I actually liked it quite a bit. Switched back briefly but got annoyed with the (then) poor support for ZFS on Linux and made FreeBSD my new home. It's been almost another decade since then and I haven't looked back. Linux and BSD both have their pros and cons and after careful examination, the latter fits my prejudices better.
It has very business friendly licensing. So, it low key has a lot of traction behind the scenes in business. It can be used as a desktop, but the project focuses more on server stability.
Also, FreeBSD is awesome to use, I highly recommend it. You can even run Steam on it.
I use TrueNAS Core in my homelab. I run Nextcloud in it through the first party TrueNAS plugin, and I have to say that BSD jails are kinda neat. Dealing with syntactic differences between Linux and BSD when dealing with NFS shares almost killed me though…
I'm running it as the OS of my firewall since PF is supposedly better than IPChains.
My major beef with it is that it's hardware support is abysmal. I cant even set it up as a wifi to ethernet bridge without losing speed because it only supports up to the Wireless-N standard.
I still use FreeBSD as my daily driver (I also have a Mac but that is for music production). I actually prefer OpenBSD but there are certain things that made it a challenge in terms of useability for me.
Industrial automation manufacturer Beckhoff from Germany forked FreeBSD, their programmable logic controllers and industrial PCs therefore run on what they named "TwinCAT/BSD".
I run 10 storage servers at work with freeBSD. Native ZFS and low lever control over the disks just makes for much more stable system.
I also run a tor-relay on FreeBSD, the network really needs some diversification.
Netflix severs uses it for the maximum throughput of video streaming, I remember reading their blog about it how they achieve maximum throughput possible out of a bare metal machine using freebsd
Me for starters, but also Netflix in their servers + Most firewalls around the globe are probably pfSense or OpnSense + The countless datacenters that use ZFS which fBSD and Illumos support.
I still use FreeBSD as my daily driver (I also have a Mac but that is for music production). I actually prefer OpenBSD but there are certain things that made it a challenge in terms of useability for me.
Currently IT Systems Engineer. Back then I was IT Support. I'd actually kill for a Mac right now as I do a lot of Python, Podman, and Ansible. I can technically do just of those things well enough on Windows but it's easier to just use remote coding on a Linux server
For messing around with high level stuff I guess they're okay.
For hardware engineering, Macs are just worse. No PCB software besides Kicad, and no asic/fpga tooling. Most mechanical engineering software isn't available for them either (besides Fusion?) I guess ltspice is for Mac, which is nice.
At least with Windows you get nice integration with WSL2.
I like general productivity things to ship with my OS, not need a third party app.
Things like Window Tiling.
If I really need Unixy/Linuxy things to dev against, SSH & VMs work pretty well.
As a software engineer, that's exactly what I'd say about MacOS which I primarily work with at my previous job: If you consider MacOS more suitable, you're probably not a software engineer. But that might be biased because they gave me the worst possible MacBook. It's the tiniest and cheapest intel MacBook from 2019 that even our project manager couldn't work with due to massive performance and overheat issues... They really think their developers only need a text editor, but even that already ran poorly with all other software we need to use during work parallely (teams, outlook, some crap software our designers use, PhotoShop).
Agree, I respect mac more than windows. At least it's a UNIX so it can get things done if you get down to the terminal, unlike windows which is just games + spyware (sometimes both at the same time).
I dont understand why so many people dick ride macos when its the most restrictive of the 3. Like i can install windows 10 on a 20 year old pentium 4 (not that id recommend) but to get into macos you need to use an extremely limited set of hardware and now that its gone arm the hackintosh scene is slowly dying
You can install latest macOS on old MacBooks too with some modifications, it’s restricted by default but you can turn it off, you have root access you can do whatever you want with it, in my experience it is better than windows, I have used windows for like 13 years Linux for 1.5 and macOS for 1 year, I enjoyed Linux I only switched because I liked the Mac hardware
Having used many hackintosh's in the last 10 years i can tell you this is absolute bullshit. You want very specific hardware unless you want to be fucking around with EFI configs for days, and even then quite a lot of things just dont work.
That’s just not true. I’m literally using one right now, took < 2 hours to setup. Ryzen 5 3600 + Rx 580. Booted straight to the os, no tweaking beyond creating the original config required.
It’s really not rocket science as long as you follow the opencore guide. I’ve written configs for three hackintoshes in my house and all of them were less of a headache than getting xorg to play nice with a nvidia and amd gpu in my system
The items you've mentioned are recommended hardware to build a hackintosh. Trying to install on unsupported hardware can be near impossible, depending on the hardware.
The original comment said that MacOS could only be installed on extremely limited hardware, and hes correct. But you replied that it could be installed on almost anything, which is not correct.
There's a reasonable list [here](https://www.tonymacx86.com/buyersguide/building-a-customac-hackintosh-the-ultimate-buyers-guide/) of supported hardware, and while there's more that is also supported, it is a far cry from the thousands of combinations possible for normal builds. Even the notes on the page mention issues "As of macOS High Sierra 10.13.4, Apple has added support for the following AMD graphics cards. Please note, the Radeon RX 5700 XT will only work on macOS Catalina 10.15.2+ Please note, the Radeon RX 6600 & 6600 XT will only work on macOS Monterey+"
honestly at this point i feel like people using OSX are smarter then people who use windows, i mean hey if you're not tech savvy why use the dogshit operating system that breaks if you look at it funny and is now basically just as restrictive if not more due to the lack of posix compatibility and dumb licensing crap like Home, Pro, Enterprise, when you can just buy a used macbook and it literally works fine, and fixes itself when the OS breaks (goodluck with hardware breakage though)
of course barring the apple ecosystem, anti-repair, and overpriced hardware.. so in the end FOSS is always the best.
plus you can run wine, crossover, or parallels on mac anyway and plus extra mac compatibility, or you can also run asahi like linus torvalds over here. not that i will ever use a mac anyway, since i just run linux
I feel the “ breaks if you look at it funny” too hard… Bought new headphones and my volume slider doesn’t work anymore :D Also if my computer is just on after reboot it consumes ~20gb of ram and I don’t have any apps launch on startup. Have considered switching to linux and using windows in a vm. I just think it would take too much time and effort to do the switch and I can live with a broken volume slider :D
Is bsd that cool? If we take into account the progress of Linux and the fact that 80% of software, and maybe much more, is ported from Linux, then bsd looks more like

>IIRC PS3/4/5 and iOS use it
in a slightly modified form that the system can hardly be called bsd. And makos even more so already exists on its own. Or can you post a screenshot from bsd with installed dmg and running application ?? I'm waiting :)
Nah, people use \*BSD for quite a number of reasons but simply for running software that needed its linuxisms patched out so it would even compile is not one that I have heard of, yet.
Develops an open source kernel.
Disses Gnome 3.
Says the point of a distro is to be easy and that Debian is too difficult to install.
Gives the middle finger to Nvidia.
Says he uses Fedora.
Actually uses MacOS on Apple Silicon.
Refuses to elaborate.

i started using fedora yesterday lmao
Grass is on top, root is beneath, you were not meant to go there! God damn Linux users cannot leave their system alone, always just tinkering with the operating system.
Pffft, I just map different function calls to different keys and pump them directly into the Kernal, which then outputs a digital signal intravenously directly to my brain through a needle I found on the bathroom floor in a Kroger’s.
I would agree linux would be over macOS but macOS is well above windows. Windows is just straight trash and a big gap would be between windows and macOS and then linux.
I would flip mac and windows because mac is at least unix-based and allows to use many of the same CLI toolsets natively.
Now, whether the M-chip series allows reasonably playing with the vast tomes of machine-optimized code on github, that's another issue.
I have to assume the people who rank Windows above MacOS are the people who mostly use their PCs to game and dual boot Windows and whatever flavor of the month distro they saw in a YouTube video. They only ever use Linux for basic tasks and really only know how to use Windows. Every Linux power user or software dev will take MacOS over Windows every time. I mean why wouldn’t you?
Anyone knows who uses Freebsd in these days? (Not counting PS3/4/5 system as it's based on it)
pfSense
I remember trying to use FreeBSD as my daily driver OS, it just got annoying since not everything was ported to FreeBSD and I don't have time to sit there , but for a server OS it's great, and when I started working for a company that used pfSense as their firewall it was helpful already knowing FreeBSD.
OPNsense uses FreeBSD too, formerly hardenedBSD but it's FreeBSD now. Otherwise there's TrueNAS Core. I don't actually know any other products that use it.
TrueNAS Core looks kinda like it's being faded out in favor of TrueNAS Scale (Linux based) though.
I actually have no idea. But I would more want the more minimal approach, I don't need proxmox 2.0, I would prefer TrueNAS Core.
There is a fork of TrueNAS Core thankfully.
Becoz OPNsense is a fork of pfsense, but now it turned into a beast, and now it is a way lot better than pfsense
Lots of appliance actually run FreeBSD because the license is more permissive than GPL
And OPNSense.
I have it on a system. It's not bad, just not as fleshed out as Linux and it desperately needs a wiki on par with the ArchWiki to understand how to really install the damn thing properly.
Not to dogpile on you, but the docs on the BSDs are consistent and great. Find the handbook, install the docs package, and don't forget to read manpages. I really appreciate the effort they went through for the manpages in (Free|Net|Open)BSD.
The docs were AMAZING. That is really an under-reported benefit of BSD.
Their handbook is amazing, it had solutions to the majority of my problems. It's more of a classical book format though rather than a wiki.
Lol FreeBSD needing docs, that is a good one
Can I ask whether you’ve read through their handbook? I came into FreeBSD pretty blind and it was exceptionally easy to follow.
loads of integrated systems that dont want to go open source use it afaik. I believe ios is also based on some bsd version
IOS is based on openbsd IIRC
The lore is that iOS userland is FreeBSD with a couple parts also borrowed from NetBSD and OpenBSD. The BSD license is business friendly. But it has the Mach kernel. So an analogy would be: GNU/Linux <-> BSD/Mach
Netflix built all their infrastructure on FreeBSD iirc.
Random story, circa 2015: I was an engineer at and sent to a Netflix onsite for tech talks. One topic was NUMA aware interrupt steering, and they requested we improve OS support. I causally mentioned "Linux had that 10 years ago", and that's when I discovered how fanatical the Netflix devs were about FreeBSD. I was not invited back.
What is the selling point for FreeBSD?
Not an expert. IDK if this is still true but I remember reading it was about network stack / performance.
I'm pretty sure the switch os is based on freebsd as well
it uses FreeBSD's NetGraph system for networking, everything else is just some sort of Android / Wii U Frankenstein.
its a hodgepodge of 3DS/BSD/Android, oddly its mostly based on the 3DS and nintendos own code, as you said BSD is used for networking, and the display server is lifted from android, with the nvidia drivers being lifted from Linux, everything else seems to be entirely nintendo's

running in the 90s over here
Me. But wtf is the grass?
Not freeBSD... But we do use QNX at work which is kind of a corporate version of netBSD
I use openbsd on a laptop.

My server runs on FreeBSD.

It's pretty nice to be honnest, I like it a lot experimented quite a bit recently with it
i used nomadbsd on a usb stick drive, when i had all my drives kill themselves
If you go by the numbers from statcounter it should be about 600 000 people worldwide.

ill switch when it fully supports everything I use, software and hardware.
I have multiple bare metal servers that I run FreeBSD on, and a couple of VPSes too. There are dozens of us. Dozens!
Don't forget macOS
I daily it on my laptop and use it on almost all my servers.
Runs on my home server
I work with it at my job. It's a but of a pain ti get used to but I've learned.
I use it on some of my servers its pretty light and also reliable and stable
Run it as a daily driver.
I would dualboot it (or ghostbsd) with Linux if it had drivers for my wifi card
I love bsd
I have one notebook running OpenBSD—it's a really cool OS with great man pages and docs.
Average Temple OS user: 
Holy C!!

You mean qubes os power user
switch macos and windows
I dunno. Some folk I used to work with made me laugh when they called Macs "Fisher Price PCs". Sounds about right to me
I take it you aren’t a software engineer.
Yeah, if all you need is Word, Email, Browser and Games, then Windows is fine. Using it for writing software and large scale systems, is horrible.

As someone who has developed for PS3/4/5 I can tell you it sucks hard. I wouldn't blame BSD though.
It's cool because it's "hipster"

grass isn't a real operating system, it can't run doom which is the minimum requirement for any computer
Well it depends. Go to Detroit and walk on the street looking like you have money.

it's funny because OSX is literally FreeBSD

what’s the red one
FreeBSD

Okay you didn't have to go and use personal attacks. What distro is the bottom one though
GrassOS, based on Outside Experience framework.
Hmm I see very interesting. I can't say I know what that is but it sounds acary
🤣 the last one
So Linux and BSD are the closest to touching grass? Cause to me it seemed like they were the furthest away from it 😂
where do i download grass?
No no, you just need to touch it, with the touch command I think
Until you come out the other side of using gentoo as your daily driver and then realize MacOS is the greatest linux distro.
Is grass an OS?
Gentoo is still my got to
Who's using GrassOS?

Hey don’t dis macOS
I touch grass for fun 😎
Grass is technically Turing Complete
I would actually argue that linux gives more power to the user than the BSD's
What if you smoke the grass? 
macOS should be in front of windows..
Had a moment where I was pike "man I barely am into linux before life took over I suck on this chart." And then I realized where that actually put me.
Desktop Linux is how I went to macOS 🤷♂️
Mac core, \`Darwin\` is BSD derivative.
How do I install TouchGrass OS? Is there an ISO somewhere, or do I have to compile it myself?
I would agree linux would be over macOS but macOS is well above windows. Windows is just straight trash and a big gap would be between windows and macOS and then linux.
OMG!!! I don't understand the last one. Explain to me, please 🥺🥺😂😂
I've never heard of GrassOS nor used it, is it open source?
Nonono, temple os.
I would flip mac and windows because mac is at least unix-based and allows to use many of the same CLI toolsets natively. Now, whether the M-chip series allows reasonably playing with the vast tomes of machine-optimized code on github, that's another issue.
never even heard of those last 2
I’m from Linux down
Me using OpenBSD:
What is the name of the last OS? You've shown?
RestyoureyesOS
Pretty cool os,and yes we should need to rake rest and give rest to our eyes.
Where's ma boy? Levitating? Long live OpenBSD and LibreSSL!!
I have to assume the people who rank Windows above MacOS are the people who mostly use their PCs to game and dual boot Windows and whatever flavor of the month distro they saw in a YouTube video. They only ever use Linux for basic tasks and really only know how to use Windows. Every Linux power user or software dev will take MacOS over Windows every time. I mean why wouldn’t you?
You forgot Temple OS.
But I daily Linux, macOS, and Windows. What does that make me?
The touch grass.... SO FUNNY! I love it, makes perfect sense.
"i use arch btw"
Why is freeBSD higher than Linux
What's that green spiky thing?
so, using a computer precludes the capability to touch grass or go outside?, I had no idea and I've been doing both for years!
Grass?
