It's kind of amazing how many veteran Linux greyhairs I've seen, downstream of the age-check-in-systemd decision, saying well I guess I need to get comfortable with a BSD now. Thirty plus years of deep-grooved Debian/RedHat muscle memory to a one, quietly tidying up and looking for the exits.

@mhoye

There’s no such thing as 30 years of RedHat muscle memory. I used RedHat quite a lot from the late ‘90s until about 20 years ago. I had to use Fedora again about for years ago and nothing I remembered about administering the system still worked. In contrast, 90% of the things I learned 25 years ago the first time I used FreeBSD still work (though they aren’t always the best way of doing things anymore).
