@oyoun My muscle memory is all linux and has been for a long time. But is there a Good Starter BSD out there? I'd be happy to give it a shot.(hey, @mwl, what's good?)

@mhoye @oyoun Truth is, an experienced sysadmin shouldn't have trouble with any of them.OpenBSD has more of a learning curb.With pkgbase, FreeBSD has some echoes of debian. (The installer is the worst part for new folks.)NetBSD is minimal, but just works.If you want a desktop OS, you might try GhostBSD. https://www.ghostbsd.org/ --FreeBSD with friendly installer, defaults, gui, etc

@technomancyI settled on netbsd for my snac instance precisely because of their explicitly strong antislop policy.@mwl @owen @mhoye
