Let's Try BSD, Part 1 of 7: Introduction (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, DragonFlyBSD)
In this series, I'll be trying out each of the four major BSD operating systems (FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and DragonFlyBSD), including install, configuration, and web serving. We're paying a visit to the weird cousins from the other continent, and we'll have some fun exploring the OTHER free opera...

Hey! This is a Linux community
That's why I shared here. Because BSD community already running BSD :)
The audacity. Do YOU see US going into windows communities to shill linux?
Oh. Yeah. Carry on then.
Look if you go to Windows community which is not similar to Linux/Unix like system it's bad on you. But BSDs and Linux are very similar in design philosophy and are dependent on each other. While windows is different thing of its own.

Interesting. Would you mind elaborating on the bold parts? Thank you in advance :D !
I think when it comes to tooling, some Linux tools are actually BSD software that works because of POSIX compliance. An example is OpenSSH.
Sorry for my wording. What I meant was While BSD and Linux are not dependent on each other, they do share a common Unix heritage and have influenced each other over the years.
That makes a lot more sense. Thank you for clarifying!
Frequently software developed for one is commonly used on the other, such as openssh, iirc.
Thank you, i've never used a BSD variant myself but am a long time Linux user. Very curious to the next posts!
Excuse me while I light my pitchfork
