>>109588199I also think if it wasn't for the lawsuit on Berkley university then BSD would be used more than GNU/Linux
BSD - Based Sissy Destroyer
>>109588224well, linux might not even exist in that case.
If GNU just used the kernel from Berkley, then Linux would probably have remained a hobby project or another Unix-like kernel to choose from.Debugging the system would've been less a pain compared to trying to fix the Hurd at the time
>>109588325Thank god that wasn't the case, I see the Linux kernel very fast compared to Unix
>>109588199this will not stand! by the power of the rms' emac-cathedra and esr bazaar I call for the intervention of cuck license poster! post cuck license now!
>>109588199>Linux is more popular than BSDths same reason windows is more popular on the desktop. it came first and was reachable to the masses>The Gaming community generally prefer Linux than anything elsebecause wine and DXVK. duuuh>The playstation OSes used to be forks of BSDs (ex:Playstation 3)because no GPL. apple and nintendo also pull code from FreeBSD for their operating systems>BSD has less drivers for GPUs and Network CardsNot much people care about it so not much support>Heard BSD is the best OS for serversNot really. it's got faster networking in certain scenarios that netflix use it. it's also less likely to shart itself if you upgrade your system packages since you can't upgrade each component individually. you upgrade the whole OS
>>109588477>you upgrade the whole OSIsn't it better that way?
>>109588670it is. no one is using freebsd besides niche hobbyists and corpos looking for a decent operating system with no gpl code. due to the reasons i mentioned in my first post
>>109588199It's ready to be raped by LLM malwaresjust like linux
I ran freebsd on a piece of shit laptop that was too slow for any linux distro, I put MATE on it IIRC, it was fine mostly, didnt really have any issues, but i had no use case back then so i trashed the laptop eventually
>>109588199FreeBSD has a lot going for it. It has higher file transfer and network throughput than linux on top of having zfs support being built into its kernel. That makes it a really good server OS for stuff like NAS. Anecdotally, I chose it for my main server OS because it's more stable than Debian, yet has an up to date version of java, unlike Debian stable.
>>109588477>because no GPLWhy were they avoiding the GPL License?Isn't it there to ensure that the software would remain open-source?And fuck the BSD license, it's literally an empty txt file
>>109589902.............because they don't want to open source their software that they spent money to make?>And fuck the BSD license, it's literally an empty txt filethat's the point
>>109588199cuck license
mindbroken Israeli above me
Why would I use BDSM/Linux if I already have Windows 11 which just werkz
>>109590158But you are the mindbroken israeli.
