On macOS I have a compatibility layer for Linux ip (since I've grown to use it, and besides the BSD ifconfig and route (and friends) has always been different from Linux. But when I am on OPNsense, the only other BSD I use, I don't have such, sadly.

With regards to Windows I use ways from NT era, Windows Vista/7, and Windows 10 to configure Windows, and I bet they added stuff in 11, too. It is a mess, supposedly by a company which makes a super user friendly UI (/s)

NFS is a very simple yet archaic filesystem, with nice throughput, but it comes from a LAN era where LAN clients were trusted. I don't know if it got modernized but I just use SSH over FUSE or CIFS over Wireguard.

NFS v4 has proper security, but it's arguably bloated and difficult to configure compared to v3, and worse than ksmbd in every way.
