    Well, the PC isn’t used only as a DAW, so I might still need Linux as opposed to FreeBSD. I’ve been running some form of Linux for a long time, now.

    If you’re of the “advanced user” kind, you might find it easier to use than Linux - cleaner, much better documentation, ports collection, ZFS without pain or any combination of GEOM classes with UFS (which has snapshots here btw). It’s a different OS, but a very pleasant one. Same X (or Wayland), same applications, etc.

    One can also use Linux emulation with CentOS 7 or Rocky Linux 9 environment for Linux binaries.

    Don’t even know what it is, actually.

    It’s a descendant of BSD, and things like Ultrix and SunOS 4 were BSD, so one can say it’s the most commonly used thing of what feels like Unix today (after Linux).

    OK, I think this reads like sales text.
