worried about wifi (intel ax200)

I am wanting to possibly switch to freebsd from void linux however
there doesnt seem to be any sort of drivers for the intel ax200 or
ax201 and so on. On openbsd there is and after looking there seems to
be drivers under development for freebsd. Is there any alternatives or
should i just wait?

Edit: I have switched over to freebsd and after tinkering around
learning how everything works I for the most part got wifi working and
am happy to say I'm daily driving freebsd

the ax200 driver ([https://wiki.freebsd.org/WiFi/Iwlwifi](https://wiki
.freebsd.org/WiFi/Iwlwifi)) is already in 13-STABLE.

Ideally just loading the driver, and perhaps other things mentioned in
the page I linked
