    @stefano @christopher I am not sure if I'd say #Linux is becoming like #Windows. I do recall similar statements made on the Debian-User mailing list on a previous release when xorg introduced autoconfiguration. A lot of people were pissed that it was making choices for you instead of manually configuring the xorg.conf file.Honestly, that was a good thing. Painful doesn't begin to describe it but users were unaware they could still hand-configure the file.There has been, however, more stuff added to Linux over the last several years. Call it bloat, call it whatever you want. OSes change. But it has been gradually moving away from simplicity.I miss the simplicity.However, to reply to your original post, coming from COTS solutions, sometimes the vast amount of choice can be overwhelming. For instance, when it comes to #FreeBSD #jails it used to just be jails. Now, it's thin, thick, classic, networking. I understand they have their places but it would be helpful to provide more detailed explanations, tutorials, or best practices for each. The FreeBSD Handbook is good but just scratches the surface but often leaves more questions. It would help with learning and in part...marketing.On a side note: The FreeBSD Handbook is a great resource but there are opportunities to improve it, like tailoring it to new users (better empathy), best practices, architectural examples, and links to additional resources and info.

    @itgrrl for desktop, it's still Fedora. Still rpm and dnf. I've tried other stuff over the years, but Fedora is the right combination of responsible adult stewardship, good taste both technical and aesthetic, good package selection, up to date packages, and a deep bench of technical talent that makes good choices...e.g. systemd is configured appropriately and correctly. I use the standard Gnome desktop spin.
