| > Since I made the move I never wax nostalgic for the "Good Ole Days" of fighting for hours to get Wifi working properly. I can assure you that you didn't have to do that for quite some time and it's not that which people are looking for. - Am looking for a system that lets me run any damn thing I want without pipups, blocks, firewalls, warnings, requiring signed binaries etc. I am looking to run and develop for the same environment I end up deploying on. - I want a system that has native docker support, systemd and makes updating the whole system or installing pretty much anything as easy as one terminal command. - It's important for me to trust my system; where I know no single entity has more power over the machine than myself and no secret upgrades I didn't desire are going to be pushed my way. - There's no telemetry in my ideal system, certainly not at the system level and patched out at the app level where possible. - I want a system that is open, configurable, respects the four freedoms and is community ran. macOS cannot give me this, no matter how "fundamentally BSD" it is. I value the freedom that free software gives that no closed-source BSD ever could. |
