Feedback/Questions [Phil - Listener Feedback] Hi, Thanks for a great podcast - last year I was wondering what bsd I'd try, moving away from Linux, I'd heard Benedict and other hosts talking about most of the day to day software I use, so I wasn't worried about any of that working, but what bsd to go for (I get very little free time these days so getting it right was important - Benedict (i think) mentioned He was using FreeBSD - choice was made! And it has been great - 3 or 4 logins later and I'm reading a motd message by Benedict himself! I need to learn a few things, but these arethe things I expected would need a bit of reading - the handbook has mostly got me there, plus google etc. I am happy with FreeBSD and with Linus recently going off on one about Welcoming AI, after allowing an unfinished file system (bcashfs) into production, to name just 2 reasons for a change, I was thinking.. I don't know what the FreeBSD developers are doing with AI, but it'll be considered and responsible - OMG I had to re-play the last podcast a few times - They don't know yet???? Now I'm stuck! I use FreeBSD for desktop & nas, I love pkg and poudriere. do any of the BSDs have (at least) a no vibecode/slop policy and offer similar pkg/build systems? Thanks Phill Send questions, comments, show ideas/topics, or stories you want mentioned on the show to [email protected] Join us and other BSD Fans in our BSD Now Telegram channel
