    Question for the tech savvy, why Linux instead of FreeBSD? China’s KylinOS started out as a FreeBSD fork before switching gears to Linux. Wouldn’t the FreeBSD license be better suited to governments?

      FreeBSD does not have support for multiple drives, so there may be problems on government computers.

      In itself, they will have several drawbacks when moving to Linux because it does not act the same as Windows or macOS.

        What really? Isn’t Freenas a Freebsd distro? Isn’t ZFS like something you can only do efficiently on BSD?
