- The author transitioned from long-term Mac OS usage, including various models from Mac SE/30 to Mac Pro, to Hackintosh and then Windows.
- After using Linux (Arch Linux with Sway) for nearly 10 years, frustrations arose due to frequent breakages and systemd-related issues.
- While working with networking, the author deployed OpenBSD and FreeBSD machines, developing a liking for BSD systems due to ease of control.
- A keyboard failure after a Linux kernel update prompted a move to FreeBSD, chosen for its ports tree, leading to a successful installation and configuration.
- After 6 months, FreeBSD works well with minor drawbacks like no browser source in OBS and lack of AnyDesk/RustDesk support, but overall it's a positive experience.
