>install FreeBSD 14.3>spend literal hours learning and configuring things: wifi drivers, linuxlator, SD card managers, FAT32 codepages, ports...>actually feel happy, accomplished and motivated>I love BSD and I want to make it my daily driveris this normal? does it happen to other people? It's irrational. It's more difficult to use, it has worse drivers, it has less apps, but I'm having a lot of fun with it. I always looked down on Gentoo and such things, and then I'm going the hardest path...
>hardest pathUh no?
