Struggling to set up wireless, gui login, gnome
For simplicity: FreshPorts is our friend.
- A few basic question about open bsd from a long time linux user who do not want to ask basic questions every 5 minutes. So I put them in one post.

FreeBSD as a daily driver
You might want to check Freshports for more details on available software.

ManjarNo please
I agree. The lack of hardware support is a long-standing pain of all BSD systems. It is probably easier for me to use Free/OpenBSD as a desktop system because I do not follow software "fashions". I have enough for my needs. Although if you explore [freshports](www.freshports.org), you may suddenly find that there are programs for every task.

Random hang, is that common ?

Im a longtime linux user and BSD noob, I have few questions in order to fill some basic gaps
I'd look at freshports to search for software that's available on FreeBSD. Most things should probably work just fine.

Which ISO should I choose? (BSD newbie)
Probably in between but you can move towards either side. Check out freshports to search for ports (what packages are built from).

Freebsd for the very first time
Also check out https://www.freshports.org/ for all the software packages available.

MAN💪jaro
Dude is a bot replying "Manjaro on x86 crashes and breaks alot". I would say Manjaro breaks a lot regardless of the architecture: https://manjarno.snorlax.sh/

let's update, darling? X let's update, MF!
windows: forces major updates to a new not yet ready major version windows: every app has a auto-launch and randomly updates in the background or is outdated windows: updates get stuck and happen right before meetings, etc windows: adds ads to your filemanager during updates and overall is more of a downgrade linux: i tell it t update when it fits me and dont even have to restart (ok its better to reboot after major updates, but i can also tell it to download&install everything and apply it during the next reboot) linux: if for some reason anything breaks i can just undo the update within grub/systemd-boot - meanwhile updating thunderbird killed one of my windows installations permanently manjaro: a burning shipwreck on all sides minimal-distros and other ones i wouldnt recommend for average users: updates require the terminal mint/pop/ubuntu/fedora: updates are neat little pop-ups and just offer it and work

Arch-based Distros
Sets out to be an easy entry to Arch with sane defaults. It tries to achieve this by making the installation of Arch easy, adding GUI-tools to ease you into Linux, own repos with less bleeding-edge software and it ships a configured Btrfs+Timeshift for easy rollbacks to a working system. Unfortunately, the team behind Manjaro has some troubles...
