I'm sure most of you are familiar with this page: https://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/rants/bsd4linux/01 Since I started using FreeBSD, it's been the go-to link to send to people asking "why should I use BSD over Linux" or "what makes FreeBSD so great?" or even just "what are the differences?" I still send this link to new users because a lot of it has withstood the test of time, and still applies to today's environment. However, there are some things that have definitely changed in our OS that I think should be added. This article really needs to be modernized to today's standards with a list of updated tools and methods. I've tried contacting the person who wrote it about getting it updated, even offering to do so myself, but never got a reply. My question to you: Would anyone here be interested in updating it (or just helping a bit) to be more accurate with the modern FreeBSD world, and has a place to host it that we can link to? I think this would really be a nice improvement and help us teach more new users about how we do things. Also, a few official pages on freebsd.org are growing a bit old (references to CVS, etc.) and might need similar treatment: FreeBSD: An Open Source Alternative to Linux https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/linux-comparison/article.html FreeBSD Quickstart Guide for Linux Users https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/linux-users/index.html Comparing BSD and Linux https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/explaining-bsd/comparing-bsd-and-linux.html I'm going to begin going through all of these pages in the next few days and see what needs to be updated and how much work this will be, but I would greatly appreciate any help from the community!

It is on my todo list to do a round of updates on it. Sadly, it has been for a while; I've been kept too busy lately to do much more than get through the day. On the upside, I don't expect it to be a huge amount of work to update. By its nature, it's oriented on the broad sweeps and philosophical differences, and those don't change. The history is rather flown by, and there are a few details that call for update, to be sure. But by and large, the points I wanted to make with it are just the same now (near a decade later) as they were at the time; FreeBSD is still FreeBSD, and Linux is still Linux. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
