Edit: Guys I didn’t write the headline; the subtitle that I added, I’ve now fixed tho

Edit: Also, the information about there being no escape is out of date – here’s a quick guide to how to fix the problem in the modern day

    Yeah, I know people running FreeBSD as their daily driver; totally left that one out haha.

    The rest of them are either niche (e.g. FreeDOS for retrogaming) or not quite ready for daily driving (e.g. ReactOS – which I’ve been rooting for for a while now).

    There’s also TempleOS lol

    When we’re talking FOSS, feel free to “ackshually” all day. Worst case is I learn something new/cool.

      I would absolutely run FreeBSD on my laptop if the WiFi wasn’t awful. It doesn’t matter which chipset, max is like 20 Mbps. Rouuugh.

      On the server side of things, Docker/Podman is so convenient, and keeps me from blowing so much time on “maintenance.”

      Hopefully, some day, I can daily a BSD. Until then- NixOS!
