FreeBSD Foundation Executive Director Tries Daily Driving FreeBSD on Laptop

As a long time FreeBSD user, the Foundation has really failed to impress me in recent years. This is a really dumb post. 10 minutes a day is not "daily driving."

Although I still love and use FreeBSD, I've redirected my donations directly to the OpenBSD project. While FreeBSD may be the more practical choice for many scenarios, I personally find OpenBSD more appealing.

Oh my god this lady should be running a pet shop. She's had this role since 2005 and is only now dogfooding the software for 10 minutes a day? Stunning and brave.

Imagine Linus Torvalds or Theo from OpenBSD using Windows out of convenience. Unthinkable.

I'll never understand why people think this looks human:

  What Made This Time Different
  This time, I didn't just install FreeBSD.
  I created a system for learning and success.

  Clear goal: FreeBSD as my daily driver
  Daily habit: 10 minutes minimum
  Accountability: post the journey on Linkedin

Gee, why not let the agent try FreeBSD for you and do the posting directly

As soon as I saw the title I immediately knew what the comment section would look like (and rightfully so).

Ten minutes a day is a daily driver? Short commute!

With ~zero unix experience (I was moving from BeOS), I ran FreeBSD full time as a chemistry grad student from 2003-2009, on a Dell XPS, and mostly had no problems. What's changed?

(I'm interested in leaving linux and going to FreeBSD)

how is this not the most embarrassing thing ever?

whats more embarassing is the shit tier presentation slop. "This time I didnt just install FreeBSD. I create a system for learning and success".

Anyone who wrote this has no business with FreeBSD or open source.
