1. Servers
2. I use both, but use FreeBSD for bare metal nearly exclusively. Linux for virtual hosting because you can't always get FreeBSD.
3. I use both FBSD and OBSD. OpenBSD I use for router-type applications and for some standalone things. I use these instead of other *BSDs because I know them better.
4. Not really.
5. The consistency and stability of the OS from a usability perspective. Linux moves fast, e.g. systemd, while FreeBSD isn't fundamentally that much different from 20 years ago. Also, FreeBSD has deeply entrenched support for ZFS, which is a game changer. It's available for Linux, but it's not quite in the same first-class citizen state as it is on FreeBSD. I'd miss the documentation as well. Both Free and OpenBSD have astoundingly good documentation. |
