bsd

any bsd users around?

i use openbsd for my firewall, freebsd for my server and laptop

i tried freebsd and dragonflybsd. it was nice, but i dont like compiling all the stuff i use. yeah. yeah. i know. there might be some bloat dependencies in packages you dont compile yourself, but until its not some gnome/kde-bloat i dont care. and compiling packages with the superior "arch build system" from the superior arch linux its not a problem. arch is very bsd-like though (has bsd-like init, /etc/rc.conf and stuff)

Not anymore, I switched back to Windows because I need it for my line of work.

I'd give it a try if it weren't compiling-oriented. I don't like to waste time, I like to download executable files.

BSD IS DYING

VROOM VROOM COMPILE PACKAGE

FreeBSD for desktop, tunneling servers. Love ports, just wish it was a little more up to date.

NetBSD here on a little 640x240 handheld pc about 9"x4"

I use it as an ssh client and for X-forwarding. Since all it needs to do is boot up and run X, it runs fine with a flash drive and no swap.

NetBSD isn't dead and never will be as long as geeks like to use old-ass awesome obscure hardware with modern technology.
