I will say something that is completely incorrect as facts, but helpful as a thought technology:

Choosing BSD over Linux is like choosing Slackware over Elementary. The differences are there, but they're very niche and subtle in the technical side and the philosophical side.

If you've never used a BSD, you can safely think of it as just another linux distro, and use the same reasoning you'd use to choose your favorite distro.

Do you need more specifics on which are those differences? Check out [1] and my own take on [2].
