It’s a system on a chip.

You could always boot whatever operating system you like on Macs.

iOS and iPadOS have fundamental design decisions, that make it unsuitable for desktop like use. The whole every all lives in their own sandbox and files being silo’d isn’t suitable.

That‘s an easy idea, but pretty difficult to make work.

You don’t deserve the massive downvotes, just because you have different person experience than others. Lemmy hivemind is just nasty.

Huh? I read here constantly about killing Nazis, meaning law enforcement and republicans.

You never know at what stage of the bubble you are. Will it burst in one year or five?

FreeBSD has a fantastic handbook for starters. The whole system from the kernel to the userland is developed concurrently and fit together really well. Linux distros are all a hodgepodge of different parts with often only arbitrary or esoteric differences.

The filesystem layout is cleaner and makes more sense than what Linux distros typically do.

The network stack is super performant, so it’s great for servers. Security tools are also top notch.

Jails have done containers and virtualization extremely well for decades.

Native ZFS alone is a reason to use it. It’s the best filesystem. BTRFS has barely caught up with it.

DTrace for profiling performance and finding bottlenecks is fantastic and super powerful.

Less free software zealotry and crusaders leads to a friendlier community.

FreeBSD has proper UNIX pedigree.

More freedom, because you can for example distribute your own appliance that‘s based on FreeBSD without being restricted by the legal complications of the GPL.

Every FreeBSD release has 4 years of support.

Especially for servers, it’s great.

TrueNAS is based on FreeBSD and the best OS for a NAS, I have found so far.

Welcome to the present old man.

If your Linux isn’t certified, you will break the law by connecting it to the internet.

Every kitchen knife is a weapon.

You can make a law that you’re only allowed to modify your devices under certain condition.

This law doesn’t even need to be uniformly enforced. See the drug market. Millions of people do drugs even though it’s illegal. This provides a convenient way to oppress and silence people.

Im using 1Blocker on Safari macOS and iOS and get no ads on YouTube.

Android has proven that wrong before.

I like buying hardware, that I know is supported by an operating system. Although that doesn’t always have a good result either. I bought a small Linux netbook with an ARM chip, that never received a kernel update because of incompatible drivers.

Autism and trans has a huge overlap. Explanations and Interpretations for this vary.

Discussing this and the pipeline you describe will quickly get you banned from many places around here.

Things don’t stick around forever here. If a user gets deleted or banned from their home instance, all their posts are gone. Deleted instances also take their content with them.

This quicksand nature of Lemmy means, it’s also terrible for long term storage and search.

You can still search Reddit and find quality answers from many years ago. This will never exist on Lemmy. It’s far too unstable. Lots of posts and communities are simply deleted.

This can also happen because they are banned for some reason.
