I think it was the general lack of consistency. Everything felt a bit messy. This was almost 20 years ago and back then the BSDs had some features that were missing in Linux.

They should laugh. When I switched from FreeBSD to Linux felt it like such a downgrade.

If Ubuntu works for you then that’s good. Don’t listen to the gatekeeping weenies who shit on people for not using arch or whatever. Most of them haven’t built their os from source and are just roleplaying having a unix beard.

Fedora. It’s the one Linus uses.
